Background strainC57BL/6JJcl
Appearanceblack [a/a B/B C/C]
Strain developmentDeposited by Hiroaki Kanki and Shigeyoshi Itohara, RIKEN Brain Science Institute in 2006. The transgene was injected into the pronuclei of C57BL/6 fertilized eggs. C57BL/6J background.
Strain descriptionThis transgenic mouse of C57BL/6 strain expresses the FLPe recombinase under the control of the CAG promoter. FLPe is a variant of the FLP recombinase with a higher enzymatic activity at 37 degrees C. The FLP-FRT system is similar to the cre-loxP system and is useful for more complex dual approaches that combine FLP with other recombinases, such as Cre and phi C31. This strain can be used to make an inducible knock-out by crossing with the other genetically-engineered mice that have a pair of FLP recombinase target (FRT) sequence flanking the genomic region of interest.
