STOCK Tg(CAG-Fgfr3*K650E, -EGFP)10Jheb/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250867

Common Name: CAG-flox-STOP-flox- FGFR3TDII
FGFR3-GOF mice conditionally express a mouse Fgfr3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) altered to become constitutively active and an EGFP from the CAG promoter. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies related to astrocyte activation and other systems involving fibroblast growth factor signaling.

Molecular Note
The transgenic construct was designed with a CMV-IE enhancer/chicken beta-actin/rabbit beta-globin hybrid promoter (CAG), a loxP-flanked STOP cassette, the mouse Fgfr3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) cDNA containing a lysine to glutamic acid substitution at residue 650 (K650E) rendering Fgfr3 constitutively active, followed by an IRES-eGFP fluorescent protein sequence.
