Abstract excerpt
The development of knockin mice with Cre recombinase expressed under the control of the promoter for choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) has allowed experimental manipulation of cholinergic circuits. However, currently available ChATCre mouse lines are on the C57BL/6J strain background, which shows early onset age-related hearing loss attributed to the Cdh23753A mutation (a.k.a., the ahl mutation). To develop...
