摘要
A cute manipulation of gene and protein function in the brain is essential for understanding the mechanisms of nervous system development, plasticity and information processing. Here we describe a technique based on a destabilized Cre recombinase (DDDD-Cre) whose activity is controlled by the antibiotic trimethoprim (TMTMP). We show that DDDD-Cre triggers rapid TMTMP-dependent recombination of loxP-flanked ('floxed') alleles in mouse neurons in vivo and validate the use of this system for neurobehavioral research.
