Split-Cre complementation restores combination activity on transgene excision in hair roots of transgenic tobacco.

The Cre/loxP system is increasingly exploited for genetic manipulation of DNA in vitro and in vivo. It was previously reported that inactive ''split-Cre'' fragments could restore Cre activity in transgenic mice when overlapping co-expression was controlled by two different promot...
