490 bp of exon 1 and 27 bp of intron 1 were replaced with a nuclear localization signal-beta-galactosidase reporter gene construct. The floxed neo cassette contained within the insert was subsequently removed by cre-mediated recombination. Northern blot analysis confirmed the absence of transcript expression in skeletal muscle, heart and bladder. (J:131297, J:184566)
