Resource Information
-
A portion of this plasmid was derived from a plasmid made byThe coding sequence of Cre was amplified by PCR using pxCANCre (Kanegae et al. NAR 23, 3816-3821 (1995)) obtained from Dr. Saito I (Univ. of Tokyo) as a template. GFP was from pEGFP-N1 (Clontech).

Depositor Comments
Kozak consensus sequence was added before the start ATG.
GFP-tag was added at the C-terminus of Cre.
Cre-GFP fusion protein is localized in the cell nucleus.
These plasmids were created by your colleagues. Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator, cite the article in which the plasmids were described, and include Addgene in the Materials and Methods of your future publications.
