Mouse Information
| Common Name: |
Insulin-CreER |
| MGI Official Name: |
Tg(RIP-Cre/ESR1)Ydor |
| Description: |
A transgenic mouse expression tamoxifen-inducible Cre recombinase under rat insulin promoter. Upon the injection of tamoxifen, loxP-flanked DNA sequences in beta cells will be deleted. |
| Categories: |
