-
PurposeCre recombinase-dependent expression of GFP, i.e. GFP is only expressed in the presence of Cre due to a transcriptional stop in between the loxP sites.

Depositor Comments
Cre recombinase-dependent inducible expression vector. GFP is expressed only in the presence of Cre, though some recipient scientists have reported some "leaky" expression.
These plasmids were created by your colleagues. Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator, cite the article in which the plasmids were described, and include Addgene in the Materials and Methods of your future publications.
