STOCK Thtm1.1(cre/ERT2)Ddg/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250568

Common Name: TH-2A-CreER
These mice express tamoxifen-inducible cre recombinase (cre/ERT2) under the regulatory control of the mouse Th (tyrosine hydroxylase) gene.

Site of Expression
When crossed with a strain bearing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, induced excision of the floxed region by Cre is consistent with the expression of Th in the symphathetic ganglia, dorsal root ganglia and retina.

Molecular Note
A T2A cleavage peptide and the Cre/ERT2 fusion protein-coding sequence were introduced to the 3'UTR of the mouse Th gene. An FRT PGK-EM7-NEOpolyA-FRT loxP cassette was placed downstream of the 3'UTR region. Homologous recombination was achieved in 129S6/SvEvTac-derived embryonic stem cells and resultant chimeric mice were crossed with Flp mice to excise the neomycin cassette.
