Abnormal c-Fos expression in TetTag mice containing fos-EGFP by Jacob H. Wilmot, Jacob H. Wilmot, Tracy L. Warren, Tracy L. Warren, Tracy L. Warren, Cassiano R. A. F. Diniz, Deger Carda, Deger Carda, Marrisa M. Lafreniere, Alex S. Nord, Alex S. Nord, Alex S. Nord, Brian J. Wiltgen, Brian J. Wiltgen

“…In addition to tagging cells active during learning, it is common to examine the reactivation of these cells using immediate early gene (IEG) expression as an index of neural activity. There are currently multiple TetTag lines available. The original line, cryopreserved at MMRRC, contains only the fos-tTA transgene, while Jackson Labs provides a version of the mouse that expresses both the fos-tTA and fos-shEGFP genes. …”
