New mouse lines for the analysis of neuronal morphology using CreER(T)/loxP-directed sparse labeling.

Pharmacologic control of Cre-mediated recombination using tamoxifen-dependent activation of a Cre-estrogen receptor ligand binding domain fusion protein [CreER(T)] is widely used to modify and/or visualize cells in the mouse.We describe here two new mouse lines, constructed by gene targeting to the...
