B6;SJL-Gfralem1(cre)Rsy/J
Cat. No.: CEMM-07251072
Common Name: Gfral-IRES-Cre
GfralCre mice have the endogenous GDNF family receptor alpha like (Gfral) promoter/enhancer sequences directing expression of Cre recombinase. These mice are a Cre-lox tool allowing Cre recombination in Gfral-expressing cells/tissues (including neurons of the area postrema and nucleus of the solitary tract) and may be useful for studying feeding behavior, obesity, and metabolism.

Breeding Considerations |
Both heterozygous and homozygous mice are viable and fertile with normal breeding, and no reported gross phenotypic or behavioral abnormalities. When maintaining a live colony, homozygous mice may be bred together.
