STOCK Gpx4tm1.1Qra/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250648

Common Name: Gpx4f
The Gpx4f allele has loxP sites flanking exons 2- 4 of the glutathione peroxidase 4 gene. Removal of the floxed sequence creates a null allele. Homozygous knockout mice exhibit mitochondrial dysfunction, increased apoptosis and neurodegeneration.

Molecular Note
A loxP site and FRT flanked neo cassette were inserted upstream of exon 2 and a loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 4 via homologous recombination. Flp mediated recombination removed the neo cassette leaving exons 2 - 4 floxed.
