Strain Description
Tph2-CreERT2 mice are generated via genome editing by replacing the TGA stop codon of the mouse Tph2 gene with a P2A-CreERT2 cassette. Without tamoxifen treatment, CreERT2 recombinase primarily resides in the cytoplasm; nuclear translocation and recombination activity of CreERT2 only occur upon tamoxifen stimulation. When crossed with mice containing loxP sites, offspring are expected to exhibit Cre-mediated recombination between loxP sites in Tph2-positive cells following tamoxifen administration.
