Overview

Nomenclature: B6.Cg-Tg(Prox1-cre/ERT2)1Tmak

  • An inducible cre deleter under the control of the prospero homeobox 1 (Prox1) promoter.
  • Cre recombination is inducible via administration of tamoxifen.
  • Allows specific and temporally controlled cre-loxP recombination (gene inactivation/activation) in Prox1-expressing tissues, including lymphatic endothelia.
  • Efficient recombination is observed during all developmental stages (embryonic, postnatal) and in adults.

Origin

The Prxo1-creERT2 mouse was developed in the laboratory of Taija Makinen at the London Research Institute. A cDNA encoding tamoxifen inducible Cre recombinase (CreERT2) followed by SV40 polyadenylation signal was introduced into the start codon of Prox1 in BAC clone RP23-190F21 using homologous recombination in bacteria. Founder lines were backcrossed to C57BL/6. Taconic received embryos from CRT in 2015.

This model is cryopreserved and available for recovery. Models can typically be recovered and delivered to customers within 12 weeks after order receipt. Purchase of this model includes perpetual use rights and a deliverable of four mutant animals at the Murine Pathogen Free™ health standard along with a genotyping protocol. For models which include a recombinase gene or multiple alleles, all alleles will be provided, but individual animals may not contain all mutant alleles.

Taconic’s Colony Management experts can design a plan to grow your colony faster.
