STOCK Tsc2tm2.1Djk/Mmjax

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250559

These Tsc2c-del3 mutant mice possess loxP sites flanking exon 3 of the tuberous sclerosis 2 (Tsc2) gene. Tsc2 encodes a tumor growth suppressor associated with tuberous sclerous complex (TSC), an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by the development of hamartomas in multiple organ systems.

Molecular Note
A loxP and a loxP-neo-loxP cassette flanked exon 3 of Tsc2 which consists of 111 bp, encoding 37 amino acids near the N terminus of the protein (note that in some schemes this is counted as exon 4; however in accordance with human TSC2 gene, it is denoted this as exon 3, labeling a 5' untranslated exon as 1a). The neo cassette was removed in ES cells by transient Cre expression leaving exon 3 floxed.
