Abstract excerpt
Intercross of mice transgenic for Flp-recombinase with the CD19cre mouse strain leads to excision of the Frt-flanked neo (R) cassette from the CD19cre knock-in transgene. This significantly reduces the expression level of Cre by the CD19cre transgene and consequently decreases the extent of Cre-mediated recombination of loxP-flanked alleles, most likely due to the fact that this neo (R) cassette contains polyoma...
