A loxP flanked PGK-neomycin selection marker inserted in the 5' UTR created a null allele. Cre recombinase deletes the selection marker, restoring normal activity of the allele. Mice fail to respond to MC4R agonist MTII. This is a null allele that can be "reactivated" by cre recombinase. (J:115192)
