| Genetic information | This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of a mouse Tek promoter and enhancer. Recombinase activity results in the deletion of loxP flanked targets in the female germline as well as in endothelial cells and hematopoietic cells. Always cross male hemizygotes with female wild types (with respect to the Cre transgene). |
| Phenotypic information | No apparent phenotype. Mice are healthy and fertile. |
| Breeding history | Backcrossed more than 10 times to BALB/c. Bred as hemizygous x wild type. |
