B6.Cg-Hdac2tm1.1Rdp/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250476

These mice carry a floxed allele of the Hdac2 (histone deacetylase 2) gene. Exons 5 and 6, encoding the HDAC-catalytic core of the protein, are flanked by loxP sites. Cre-mediated excision of the floxed segment results in a null genotype, lacking protein expression. HDAC2 deficiency results in increased synapse number and memory facilitation.

Molecular Note
LoxP sites were inserted upstream of exon 5 and downstream of exon 6. Protein expression was unaffected as determined by immunoblot analysis of embryonic fibroblasts. Cre-mediated recombination removed the drug selection cassette.
