Summary description:

This plasmid contains an insulin-cre-hGH fusion gene that was made as follows.  (1) The 1.2 kb NLSKOZCre gene from pmL78 was subcloned into pBSIIKS at Sal I and EcoRI.  (2) The 0.7 kb rat insulin promoter 2 gene (RIP) was subcloned from pSPRIP into the Kpn I and Xho I sites.  (3) The 2.1 kb growth hormone gene from pOGH was cut at BamHI and EcoRI, blunted, and Spe I sites introduced on either end; this GH gene fragment was then subcloned into the Spe I site of the clone from step 2.  (4) A small Sal I/Sal I polylinker fragment between RIP and Cre was deleted.  (5) The final construct (pBS/RIP-Cre-GH) was cut at Kpn I and Not I and used for microinjection.

 

This plasmid was used to generate RIP(Ins2)-Cre transgenic mice.
