  Control Strains   Reporter gene Strains  
 Gene lacZ: beta-galactosidase, E. coli
 Origin This strain was established at Jichi Medical School. This transgenic rat was originated from LEW (RT1<sup>l</sup>) strain purchased from Charles River Japan. 
 Strain Characteristics This strain expresses LacZ ubiquitously driven by the gene trap ROSA26 promoter.  
 Breeding Conditions Good breeding performance.
