| Summary | |
|---|---|
| Synonym: | pbin7Lef:dGFP F2, pbin7Lef:dGFP-H (F2) |
| Species: | Xenopus tropicalis |
| Background Strain: | Xtr.Outbred |
| Paternal Line: | |
| Maternal Line: | |
| Description: | The inserted transgene construct contains a synthetic Wnt-responsive promoter consisting of 7 copies of a TCF/LEF1 binding DNA element, a minimal TATA box and a reporter gene encoding destabilized EGFP and a polyA sequence. The transgene is flanked on both sides by two copies of the chicken HS4-core sequence. See Tran et al., 2010 and 2013 for a full description. Likely due to a (unknown) transgene integration event, the animals can produce pseudo-albino (no red eyes) off-spring. |
| Phenotype Description: | GFP expression reveals dynamic patterns of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling activity First clear signals present at neurula stage (NF stage 19) in the neural folds. |
