A mouse Col2a1 gene deleted for a 150 bp region containing exon 7 and intron 7 was used for the transgene. 3 kb of mouse Col2a1 promoter sequences were used to drive transgene expression in chondrocytes. The transgene is expressed predominantly in the cartilage and eye as determined by RT-PCR analysis of transgenic tissues. (J:1279)
