A Human Promoter that Directs Podocyte Specific Transgene Expression
TECHNOLOGY NUMBER: 2361
Technology No. 2361
1
OVERVIEW
These transgenic mice (commonly referred to as podocin-Cre mice) have expression of Cre recombinase directed to podocytes within kidney glomeruli by the human podocin (NPHS2) promoter/enhancer region and may be useful in generating Cre-lox conditional knockouts for studying the role of podocyte nephrobiology in renal disorders.
