STOCK Sim1tm1.2Az/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250063

These "Sim1-floxed exon 1" (2-loxP) mice may be useful in generating conditional mutations for studying basic helix-loop-helix-Per-ARNT-Sim (bHLH-PAS) transcription factors, central nervous system development, early-onset/hyperphagic obesity, and regulation of appetite and energy balance.

Molecular Note
A targeting vector was designed to place a loxP site just upstream of the ATG translational start site and a loxP-flanked PGK-Neo cassette downstream of the same exon of the targeted gene. The construct was injected into RW-4 ES cells. Chimeric mice were bred to C57BL/6 mice, and the neomycin selection cassette was excised from these mice by crossing to FVB transgenic mice with widespread Cre recombinase expression.
