STOCK Tg(Gsx1-cre)6Wql/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250735

Common Name: Gsx1cre
These Gsx1cre transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the Gsx1 promoter and may be useful for generating conditional mutations for studying gain/loss of function or fate mapping in Gsx1 expressing neurons.

Site of Expression
Cre recombinase is expressed primarily in the dorsal spinal cord and hindbrain beginning around E13.5. Cre recombinase activity is also detected in Gsx1-expressing cells in the spinal cord ventral horn and dorsal root ganglia.

Molecular Note
The mouse bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) BX1725 (RP24-352K2) containing the entire Gsx1 gene, was modified by fusing a Cre recombinase coding sequence into the first encoding exon of the Gsx1 gene. The resulting transgenic mice from founder line 6 were crossed to Create the line.

Breeding Considerations
When maintaining a live colony, hemizygous mice may be bred together, to wildtype siblings, or to C57BL/6J inbred mice. The Donating Investigator has not attempted to make this strain homozygous.
