Catalog Number: I001155
Strain Name: C57BL/6JCya-Vipem1(IRES-iCre)/Cya
Genetic Background: C57BL/6JCya
Examples of Expressing Tissues/Cells: neocortex, hippocampus, olfactory bulb, supraoptic nucleus, and other decentralized midbrain and brainstem regions
Strain Description
The "IRES-iCre" cassette was inserted downstream of the TGA stop codon. Cre recombinase is expressed under the regulatory control of Vip gene elements, without impacting the endogenous expression of the Vip gene.
Announcement
The insertion site of the Cre recombinase gene expression cassette in this strain is located on chromosome 10. Please avoid breeding with gene-edited mice targeting genes on the same chromosome as the Cre mouse when conducting mating.
