FVB/N-Tg(Fabp1-Cre)1Jig PCR Protocol

 
Strain: FVB/N-Tg(Fabp1-Cre)1Jig Strain Code: 01XD8
Protocol Number: 1  
   
Introductory Comment: This strain contains a Cre recombinase gene linked to the rat fatty acid binding protein 1 (Fabp1) promoter. The genotying strategy is to detect this transgene with primer F006, which is specific for the Fabp1 element, and C031, which is specific for the Cre recombinase gene.
