Does the Cre strain only show cleavage activity in specific cells or tissues?

Gene Summary

Gene Name

Model Description

Since Cre is driven by a brain-specific promoter, does that mean Cre is only expressed in the brain?  This is not true unfortunately. Studies have shown Cre activity in other tissues of most strains. For example, in addition to the brain, Cre is also expressed in the kidneys and thymus of Emx1-Cre mice. <span style=";font-family:等线;font-size:15px"></span>
