Strain Description: This strain carries an activated HRAS human gene (G12V) under the control of a minimal promoter containing multimerized tet-operons (TetO). TetO will drive expression of the HRAS transgene in the presence of a tetracycline transcriptional activator(tTA), or a tetracycline reverse transcriptional activator (rtTA), in the absence or presence of doxycycline (Dox), respectively. In normal use this strain would be mated with a transgenic strain carrying tTA or rtTA under the control of a tissue specific promoter/enhancer.
