LSL-KrasG12C Mouse

Principal Investigator: 

Lukas Dow, Professor of Biochemistry in Medicine

Name: B6;129S4-Krasem1Ldow/J

Strain: 033068

Modification: Endonuclease-mediated mutation

Description: LSL-KrasG12C mice carry a CRISPR/cas9 generated mutation (G12C) in Kras commonly found in lung cancer. Expression of this mutant is blocked by a loxP-flanked stop codon. Cre-mediated recombination allows for the oncogenic protein to be expressed by excising the stop codon.

Application: Mouse strain useful for studying lung cancer.
