Molecular Note
Bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library (CHORI) was used to identify a BACcontaining the entire mouse pro-melanin-concentrating hormone (Pmch) gene. This BAC was generated to contain a Cre coding sequence downstream from the start codon, and was microinjected into fertilized C57BL/6J oocytes.

Breeding Considerations
When maintaining a live colony, hemizygous mice may be bred to wildtype (non-carrier) mice from the colony or to C57BL/6J inbred mice.
