Expression of <i>Cacna1g</i> (calcium channel, voltage-dependent, T type, alpha 1G subunit) is regulated by a tetracycline operator (tetO); also called tetracycline-responsive element (TRE, TetRE) or tet-operator) in this transgenic strain. When mated to a mutant strain expressing tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA), expression of CACNA1G protein may be regulated with tetracycline or its analog doxycycline (dox) in the double mutant offspring. When crossed with a Myh6-tTA strain (e.g. Stock No. <a href="https://www.jax.org/strain/003170">003170</a>), double transgenic mice show protection from cardiac hypertrophy after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery. This strain may be useful in studies of cardiomyopathy.
