[41]. Exons 1–3 are shown as light blue boxes, and the Tau start codon in exon 2 is indicated as ATG. The probe used to detect homologous recombination is shown as a grey box. Middle and bottom panels show Tau locus after homologous recombination to integrate targeting cassettes (green) into exon 2 with coincident elimination the endogenous Tau start codon. The integrated targeting cassettes allow for conditional expression of EWS-Pea3 and NLS-LacZ (NLZ) (middle) or mGFP and NLS-LacZ (bottom) upon Cre-recombinase-mediated activation. In the absence of Cre recombinase, a transcriptional stop sequence flanked by loxP sites inhibits expression of the respective transgenes from their start codons (ATG in grey).\n(B) Southern blot analysis of TauEWS-Pea3/+ and TaumGFP/+ genomic DNA to detect the mutant allele.\n(C) In the presence of Cre recombinase, the transcriptional stop sequence in the cassettes integrated into the Tau locus is removed. Expression of EWS-Pea3 and NLS-LacZ (top) or mGFP and NLS-LacZ (bottom) can now occur in neurons coincidently expressing Cre recombinase and Tau (indicated as ATG in green).\n(D–L) Expression of Isl1 (D, G, and J), EWS-Pea3 (E and H), GFP (K), or LacZ (F, I, and L), in E12 (D–I) or E13.5 (J–L) DRG neurons of wild-type (D–F), TauEWS-Pea3/+ Isl1Cre/+ (G–I), and TaumGFP/+ Isl1Cre/+ (J–L) embryos.\nScale bar: (D–F), 40 μm; (G–I), 35 μm; (J–K), 50 μm.\n(1.5 MB CDR).","divisions":[{"label":"title","span":{"begin":0,"end":80}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":81,"end":934}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":935,"end":1033}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":1034,"end":1340}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":1341,"end":1562}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":1563,"end":1615}}],"tracks":[{"project":"2_test","denotations":[{"id":"15836427-11135642-84719690","span":{"begin":219,"end":221},"obj":"11135642"},{"id":"T56896","span":{"begin":219,"end":221},"obj":"11135642"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"15836427-11135642-84719690","pred":"source","obj":"2_test"},{"subj":"T56896","pred":"source","obj":"2_test"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"2_test","color":"#e2ec93","default":true}]}]}}
