STOCK Igs5tm2.1(ACTB-EGFP, -tdTomato)Luo/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250450

Common Name: MADM-7GT (Hipp7GT)
The MADM-7GT (Igs5GT) allele has the CMV enhancer/chicken beta-actin core promoter, the N-terminal portion of mut4-EGFP, a beta-globin intronic sequence (containing frt and lox sites), and the MYC-tagged C-terminal portion of tdTomato all inserted into the Igs5 locus on chromosome 7 (~2.13 cM; ~0.7 kbp downstream of exon 5 of the Rps9 gene). These MADM-7GT mutants are designed for MADM (mosaic analysis with double markers), and must be crossed to MADM-7TG mice harboring a reciprocal mutation at the same locus. This MADM system allows Cre recombinase-induced fluorescent labeling of daughter cells to ascertain lineal relationships and pleiotropic gene function in multicellular organisms. These mice may also be useful in studies of cell differentiation, mitosis, and imprinting.

Molecular Note
The GT MADM targeting construct was designed with a CMV enhancer/chicken beta-actin core promoter (pCA), the N-terminal portion of a mutant enhanced green fluorescent protein (mut4-EGFP; aa 1-273), a beta-globin intronic sequence containing an FRT site and loxP-flanked neomycin resistance gene, the C-terminal portion of a red fluorescent protein (tdTomato; aa 4-1544) tagged with three copies of the Myc epitope at its C-terminus, and an SV40 T-antigen poly(A) signal. This entire GT MADM construct was inserted into the Iis5 locus locate at about 0.7 kb downstream of exon 5 of the Rps9 gene at 2.13cM. Mice were bred to Hprt-Cre mice (on an undisclosed genetic background) and the floxed neomycin resistance gene was removed.
