C57BL/6-Scn2atm1.1Csbd/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07251025

Common Name: Scn2af
Scn2af/+ conditional mutant mice carry a floxed allele in which exons 4-6 of the mouse Scn2a (sodium channel, voltage-gated, type II, alpha) gene are flanked by loxP sites. Cre recombinase-mediated excision of the floxed region results in a knock-out allele useful in studies of neuronal synaptic transmission.

Molecular Note
An FRT site, EGFP, loxP site, neomycin selection gene, FRT site and loxP site were inserted upstream of exon 4 and a third loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 6. Flp-mediated recombination removed the EGFP and neomycin genes, leaving exons 4-6 floxed.
