Tg(Myh6-Pparg)HIjg

The transgene insert comprises the following: 5.4 kb of genomic sequence containing the mouse myosin heavy chain alpha (cardiac) promoter and exons 1-3, a cDNA for the gamma1 isoform of the mouse Pparg gene and poly(A) features. This allele drives overexpression of the inserted gene in the heart, as shown by RT-PCR experiments. This allele is a high expressing allele. (J:127393)
