Genetic information | The complete mouse Twist1 ORF is encoded by exon 1. Exon 1 including 1.5 kb of the promoter region has been flanked by loxP sites, as its genetic ablation should result in loss of function. The conditional targeted mutation has been obtained by in vivo, Flp recombinase-mediated removal of the neomycin selection marker. |
Phenotypic information | TO BE PROVIDED |
Breeding history | Targeting performed in C57BL/6N ES cells and confirmed by Southern blotting. Crossed to C57BL/6N-Tg(CAG-flpe)2Arte mice to obtain mutant founders with excised neo cassette. Maintained on C57BL/6N background. |
