STOCK Gcktm1.1Arte/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07251095

Common Name: Gcklox
Exons 5 and 6 of the mouse Gck (glucokinase) gene are flanked by loxP sites in this Gckf allele. Cre recombinase-mediated excision of the floxed region results in a gene knock-out useful in studies of insulin secretion, glucosensing, adiposity, and feeding behavior.
