| BRC No. | RBRC01464 |
| Type | Targeted Mutation |
| Species | Mus musculus |
| Strain name | B6(Cg)-Cacna1g<tm1.1Ksak>/KsakRbrc |
| Former Common name | Ca1G(flox), C57BL/6-Cacna1g<flox/+> |
| H-2 Haplotype | |
| ES Cell line | Bruce (gifted by Dr. Colin L. Stewart) |
| Background strain | |
| Appearance | |
| Strain development | Developed by Dr. Kenji Sakimura, Brain Research Institute, Nigata University in 2002. The targeted allele of this strain was flanked exon 5 with loxP sites and a FRT flanked Neo resistant gene driven by the PGK promotor. The FRT-flanked neo was excised by crossing with mice expressing Flp. |
| Strain description | Cacna1g gene is a member of the low-voltage-activated calcium channel that plays a critcal role in calcium ion transport in nerve, muscle and endocrine cells. The targeted allele of this strain was flanked exon 5 with loxP sites. The FRT-flanked neo was excised by crossing with mice expressing Flp. Conditional Cacna1g deficient mice can be generated by crossing with tissue-specific Cre mice. |
