Tractable Cre-lox system for stochastic alteration of genes in mice
&
Abstract
We developed a cell division–activated Cre-lox system for stochastic recombination of loxP-flanked loci in mice. Cre activation by frameshift reversion is modulated by DNA mismatch-repair status and occurs in individual cells surrounded by normal tissue, mimicking spontaneous cancer-causing mutations.
