Information from provider
| Provider | Friedrich Beermann |
| Provider affiliation | EPFL SV ISREC |
| Genetic information | A MART-1 BAC was modified by homologous recombination in bacteria and contains a Cre recombinase allowing for Cre recombinase expression driven by regulatory sequences of the MART-1/Mlana gene. |
| Phenotypic information | This is a Cre-expressing line which allows Cre expression in melanocytes and in the retinal pigment epithelium. |
| Breeding history | It is currently backcrossed to C57BL/6. |
