B6(Cg)-Ndnftm1.1(cre/ERT2)Ispgl/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07251004

Common Name: Ndnf-IRES-CreERT2
Ndnf-IRES-CreERT2 knock-in mice have a cre/ERT2 fusion gene inserted into the 3' UTR in exon 4 of the neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (Ndnf) gene. These mice retain endogenous Ndnf expression and may be used to generate conditional mutations for studying gain-or-loss of function, fate mapping and/or circuit dissection of NDNF+ cell populations.

Site of Expression
Expression is evident in neocortical layer 1 (L1) GABAergic interneurons (INs) in the adult mouse brain, and becomes restricted to GABAergic interneurons only during the third postnatal week.

Molecular Note
The targeting vector was designed to insert an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) fused to a Cre/ERT2 fusion gene (Cre recombinase fused to a human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain) into the 3' UTR in exon 4 of the neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (Ndnf) gene. The construct also included a FRT flanked neomycin resistance cassette. After homologouse recombination in ES cells, the resulting chimeric mice were bred with flp recombinase expressing mice to remove the neo cassette.
