Variegate expression of Cre recombinase in hematopoietic cells in CD11c-cre transgenic mice

Abstract In this study, we performed an in-depth analysis of Cre expression in the widely used CD11c-Cre transgenic mice generated by the group of Boris Reizis. In contrast to previous observation, using the highly sensitive Rosa-26-floxed-tdTomato reporter mouse line, we show variegated expression of Cre in multiple hematopoietic linage cells…

3.5: Cre-Lox, Driver Lines, and Next Order Specificity

What is the Cre-lox system and why do we need it? In the previous chapters we have examined the use of recombinant molecular techniques that help neurobiologists to understand the role of specific neurons within a brain circuit in a complex behavior. However, we haven’t yet examined how to ensure…
