Linearized vector was electroporated into CJ7 ES cells and 71 individual Neo resistant and HAT resistant clones were isolated according to previously published procedures [66]. Clones were screened for successful Bptf targeting using Eco RI, probe 29–31; Bam HI, probe exon2; and Sca I, probe exon2. 16 of 71 isolates were found to be correct for a recombination frequency of 22%.
