Notes
The genotyping protocol(s) presented here have been optimized for reagents and conditions used by The Jackson Laboratory (JAX).
To genotype animals, JAX recommends researchers validate the assay independently upon receipt of animals into their facility.
Reaction cycling temperature and times may require additional optimization based on the specific genotyping reagents used.
Expected Results
Transgene = 79 bp
Internal positive control = 74 bp
This assay can be used for tTA & rtTA but not rtTA Advanced(rtTA*M2)
