STOCK Tg(En2-cre)22Alj/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250137

These En2-cre line 22 transgenic mice (also called En2cre-22, En2cre line Tg22, or En2-cre tg-22) have the mouse engrailed 2 (En2) promoter/enhancer elements directing expression of Cre recombinase to a subset of En2-expressing cells; including the embryonic midbrain-hindbrain (mesencephalon-metencephalon) constriction region of the developing brain that gives rise to the posterior midbrain and medial cerebellum.

Breeding Considerations
When maintaining a live colony, hemizygous mice may be bred to non-carrier (wildtype) siblings. The donating investigator has not determined the phenotype of homozygous mice to date.
