B6.129(SJL)-Oxtrtm1.1Wsy/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250109

Common Name: Oxtrflox
Mice homozygous for the Oxtrflox targeted allele harbor loxP sites flanking exons 2-3 of the oxytocin receptor (Oxtr) gene, and may be used for spatial and temporal inactivation of the oxytocin receptor in studying parturition and lactation, as well as social, behavioral, and learning disorders such as autism and anxiety.
