Tg(CAG-Katshuka)#Sgo

The transgenic construct consists of the ubiquitous promoter CAG, composed of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early enhancer and the modified chicken b-actin promoter, a loxP-flanked transcription STOP cassette (LSL) followed by the cDNA of Katushka fluorescent protein (KFP), and a rabbit beta-globin polyadenylation signal. The Katushka expression is driven by the CAG promoter upon Cre recombinase-mediated excision of the floxed STOP cassette. Five founder mice were generated, three of which transmitted germline. Two lines 3 and 13 were established with similar expression patterns. The pound symbol (#) is used when no line is specified and/or lines are pooled. (J:167974)
