LacZ data
By inserting a lacZ reporter cassette where the gene of interest is located, the tissue where the gene is expressed is identified by the presence of a blue pigment.
Image lacZ data can be found:
- in the Gene pages, section “Associated images”
- as a text file in the FTP site, the directory “results” features a dedicated lacZ expression report
Images are available to view in our image comparator, where you can see images for wildtype and mutant mice side by side. Why not givie it a try? You can start by searching for your favourite gene in the IMPC homepage search box or try the Cib2 gene page.
