FVB/N-Tg(Mpz-cre)26Mes/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250383

Common Name: mP0TOTA(Cre); mPoTOTA-Cre; MPZ(Cre); Tg98.1; Tg(Mpz-cre)1Mfel
These transgenic mice contain the myelin protein zero (P0) (Mpz) promoter driving expression of Cre recombinase in Schwann cell. These mice may be useful for studying the myelination of peripheral nerve cells.

Molecular Note
This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of a mouse Mpz promoter. This transgene is expressed in Schwann cells, but not in sensory neurons. Multiple copies of the transgene construct were integrated into the 35-45 cM position on Chromosome 15.

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