Depositor Comments

Linker between sfGFP and iCre-ERT2 is a mutated P2A sequence where 2 conserved amino acids are changed to Alanines. This mutated sequence does not skip.

The sfGFP fluorescence from the sfGFP-iCre-ERT2 is dim, as described in Nam and Capecchi, 2020 (https://doi.org/10.1186/s13064-020-00139-5) and a Figshare page (https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.13218437.v35) In short, it is not visible to the eyes, but can be detected with flow cytometry.
