Mouse Strain information
APB ID 8632
Added 20/12/2018
Last Edited 21/12/2018
Strain nomenclature: B6.Cg-Efnb2tm2And Tg(Dmp1-cre)1Jqfe
Nickname: Dmp1Cre.Efnb2
Genetics
Strain Types Mutant strain
Genetic Details Transgenic: CRE
Targeted floxed
Mode of Inheritance Recessive
1.  Affected Gene Name: ephrin B2  
Chromosome 8
Affected Gene Symbol Efnb2
Genetic alteration of gene: A loxP site was inserted 45 bp upstream in the 5' UTR and a floxed PGKneo cassette was inserted downstream of the first exon. The floxed PGKneo cassette was removed by transient Cre expression in the ES cells which resulted in a floxed intact exon I.
Location on chromosome (bp): 8617434-8661242 bp, - strand (From Ensembl annotation of GRCm38)
