General Information
Term cre recombinase ID (Ontology) FBcv:0000481 (FlyBase CV)
Definition Sequence change induced by a site specific recombination event catalyzed by the tyrosine recombinase cre. Recombination is induced between two 34 base pairs loxP sites. These consist of two 13 base pair perfect inverted repeats flanking an 8 base pair asymmetric spacer that confers directionality.[ FlyBase:FBrf0201927 PubMed:6954485 ]
Also Known As "change induced by cre recombinase recombination"
