The EUCOMM targeting vector (project ID 45696) introduced an FRT site, lacZ gene, loxP site, neomycin under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site upstream of exon 6. A third loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 7. A "conditional ready" (floxed) allele can be created by flp recombinase expression in mice carrying this allele. Subsequent cre expression results in a knockout mouse. If cre expression occurs without flp expression, a reporter knockout mouse will be created. Further information on targeting strategies used for this and other IKMC alleles can be found at http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/nomen/IKMC_schematics.shtml. (J:205013)
