Properties

  1. Resource Description
    "This strain carries a point mutation (G12D) in the Kras (v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) gene whose expression is blocked by the presence of a loxP-flanked stop codon. Homozygotes die in utero. Cre-mediated recombination can excise the stop codon and permit the oncogenic protein to be expressed. Intranasal infection with an adenovirus encoding Cre results in a very high frequency of lung tumors and permits controlled timing of tumor initiation and tumor multiplicity. This strain may be useful in studies of cancer and development."
