The L1L2_Bact_P cassette was inserted at position 4798418 of Chromosome 8 upstream of the critical exon(s) (Build GRCm39). The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by neomycin resistance gene under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exon(s) at position 4800268. The critical exon(s) are thus flanked by loxP sites. The lacZ and neomycin segments were excised with germline Actin-Flp recombinase, leaving exons 4 and 6 flanked by loxP sites.
