Genetic information | Instead of the whole open reading frame of exon 2 (and 3), a lacZ reporter gene and a neomycin selection cassette is inserted in the Gja10 (Cx57) locus, leading to the expression of lacZ under the control of the endogenous Gja10 promoter. |
Phenotypic information | Strong reduction of tracer coupling in horizontal cells of the retina. |
Breeding history | After blastocyst-injection the chimeras were bred with C57BL/6NCrl to obtain brown coat coloured offspring. This brown offspring was backcrossed to C57BL/6NCrl more than 2 times. |
