Gene Summary

Gene Symbol
Isl1

Model Description

A iCre-WPRE-pA expression cassette was knocked into the Isl1 gene start codon site.
Research Application:Cre recombinase tool; Isl1-Cre mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the ISL1 transcription factor. It can be used for lineage tracing of Isl1 positive cells.
