Gene Affected CAG-loxP-flanked Neo/STOP cassette-tdTomato
Origin Background strain: LongEvans Transgene: CAG-loxP-flanked Neo/STOP cassette-tdTomato was inserted into mouse ROSA26 BAC (RP23 244D9). The inserted gene copy nymber is one copy.
Strain characteristics tdTomato (red fluorescence) expression is detected in the presence of Cre recombinase.
Breeding Conditions crossing with the wild-type Long-Evans rat
Genotyping Detection of neo sequence between loxP secuences by PCR analysis. Primers: Forward ctatgactgggcacaacagacaat, Reverse aactcgtcaagaaggcgatagaag PCR condition (KOD Fx neo): 94℃ 2min, 30 cycles of 98℃ 10s and 68℃ 60s, 4℃ Product size: 726bp
