-
The targeting vector has been generated using C57BL/6J DNA and transfected into C57BL/6NTac ES cell line.
-
Acly exon 2 contains the translation initiation codon.
-
Exons 17-19 have been flanked by loxP sites.
-
The constitutive KO allele has been generated after Cre-mediated recombination by crossing chimeras to a Cre-Deleter on a C57BL/6 background.
-
The constitutive KO line has been subsequently backcrossed to C57BL/6NTac animals for at least 2 generations and the Cre-transgene was removed by segregation.
-
Deletion of exons 17-19 should result in loss of function of the Acly gene by deleting the ATP-citrate lyase/succinyl-CoA ligase domain.
-
The remaining recombination sites are located in intron regions of the genome.
-
The conditional KO allele is also available as line 7917.
