SpeciesMus musculus
Strain nameB6.Cg-Tg(Nes-cre)1Nogu
Former Common nameB6.Cg-Tg(Nes-cre)1Nogu
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell line
Background strainC57BL/6JJcl
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Dr. Shigeru Noguchi, Meiji Dairies Corporation and Kanagawa Academy of Science and Technology and Dr. Toshikuni Sasaoka, Center for Bioresource-based Researches, Brain Research Institute, Niigata University. The transgene was injected into the pronuclei of B6D2F1 fertilized eggs. The mice were backcrossed to C57BL/6.
Strain descriptionNestin-cre transgenic mice, expressing a cre recombinase gene under the control of Nestin promoter and enhancer. This Nestin-cre transgene contains a rat nestin promoter, cre recombinase gene, IRES-lacZ-polyA and neuron specific enhancer (around 100 bp of exon 1, the entire intron 1 and around 100 bp of exon 3 of nesitin gene). Tissue-specific expression: observed in whole brain, spinal cord and testis/ovary; not observed in thymus, lung, heart, kidney, spleen, stomach, small and large intestine, pancreas, skeletal muscle and tail (Developers, personal communication).
Colony maintenanceBackcross to C57BL/6 (Hemizygote x C57BL/6JJcl)
