STOCK Gt(ROSA)26Sortm8(ACTB-EGFP*, -tTA2)Luo/J
Cat. No.: CEMM-07250373
Common Name: R26G-tTA2
The R26G-tTA2 allele has a CMV enhancer/chicken beta-actin core promoter-driven "MADM G-tTA2" (GFPN-terminus-intron-tTA2ATG-less) inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus on chromosome 6. These mutant mice are designed to combine the "new MADM-6" system with a Tet-Off binary expression system to create MADM-Tet (mosaic analysis with double markers combined with Tet-Off). This is a tool to generate genetic mosaics in which an individual organism contains somatic cells of different genotypes. This allows Cre or FLP recombinase-induced fluorescent labeling/tTA2-expression in daughter cells to ascertain lineal relationships and pleiotropic gene function in multicellular organisms. These mice are also a Tet-Off tool enabling a TRE transgene to be conditionally expressed in a subset of MADM-labeled cells.

Molecular Note |
A targeting vector was Created with a CMV enhancer/chicken beta-actin core promoter (pCA) upstream of the MADM G-tTA2 cassette. The MADM G-tTA2 cassette used here (GFPN-terminus-intron-tTA2ATG-less) was designed with the N-terminal portion of a mutant enhanced green fluorescent protein (mut4EGFP first exon; nucleotides 1-274), a beta-globin intronic sequence (containing a FRT flanked region of two lox site variants [lox2272 and lox5171] and then a loxP-flanked neomycin resistance gene), an ATG-less tetracycline-regulated transactivator sequence (tTA2ATG-less), and an SV40 T-antigen poly(A) signal. This entire construct was subcloned into the pROSA26-PA targeting vector to generate the final targeting construct pROSA26-G-tTA2. The pROSA26-G-tTA2 construct was inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus.
