SpeciesMus musculus
Strain nameC.Cg-Lyzs<tm1(cre)Ifo>
Former Common nameLysM-Cre knock-in mice (BALB/c), BALB/c-LysM-Cre knock-in mice
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell lineE14 [129P2/OlaHsd]
Background strainC57BL/6NCrlCrlj
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Technical University of Munich, Irmgard Foester. Deposited by Shigeo Koyasu, School of Medicine, Keio University through Akita University Graduate School of Medicine. E14 ES cells were used to generate the knock-in mice. The mice were crossed to C57BL/6 for several times, and then backcrossed to C57BL/6NTac and BALB/cAnN, respectively (RBRC02302 and RBRC02303).
Strain descriptionLyzs (Lyz2, lysozyme 2) Cre knock-in mice, known as the LysMcre mouse. A NLS-cre cDNA was inserted into the endogenous ATG start site of Lyz2 gene. LysMcre mice allow for both specific and highly efficient Cre-mediated deletion of loxP-flanked target genes in myeloid cells.
Colony maintenanceHomozygote x Homozygote [or Crossing to BALB/cAnN]
