Nickname:

PTEN lox P locus/MMTV CRE

Genetics

Strain Types

Mutant strain

Genetic Details

Transgenic: CRE
Targeted floxed

Mode of Inheritance

Dominant

1. Affected Gene Name: phosphatase and tensin homolog

Chromosome	19
Affected Gene Symbol	Pten
Genetic alteration of gene:	One loxP site was inserted in intron 3 and a floxed hygromycin selection cassette was inserted in intron 5. The hygromycin selection cassette was removed in ES cells by transient Cre expression, leaving exons 4 and 5 flanked by loxP sites in the final allele.
Location on chromosome (bp):	32757497-32826160 bp, + strand From VEGA annotation of GRCm38
