Parp2 Conditional Knockout mouse — cardiac specific context
Parp2 conditional knockout mice carry a floxed allele so you delete function only where Cre recombinase is active. This design keeps the germline allele intact until you cross to a tissue specific Cre. It is often the first choice when a global knockout is lethal, when you need adult onset loss, or when regional redundancy masks a whole body phenotype. For cardiac work, plan Cre specificity, reporter crosses, and baseline phenotyping before you scale.
Catalog options
Conditional knockout keeps heart as the experimental theater while the rest of the animal retains a wild type allele. That pattern mirrors somatic mutation in patients and avoids systemic compensation that can erase subtle phenotypes. It is often preferred when a germline null is lethal, weak, or confounded by developmental rescue.

Why this approach
Conditional knockout keeps neuron as the experimental theater while the rest of the animal retains a wild type allele. That pattern mirrors somatic mutation in patients and avoids systemic compensation that can erase subtle phenotypes. It is often preferred when a germline null is lethal, weak, or confounded by developmental rescue.

FAQ
Is Parp2 knockout embryonic lethal in mice?
Lethality depends on genetic background and exact allele design. Some Parp2 germline knockouts are viable, others require conditional alleles or mixed backgrounds. We review publications and our own experience, then recommend floxed versus null approaches before you commit.
Which Cre driver is best for heart specific focused experiments?
Driver choice depends on onset timing, recombination efficiency, and known leak patterns. We map your organ and cell type to a short list of proven Cre lines, then discuss reporter crosses and controls. Your query highlights heart specific as a primary axis, which we treat as the starting point for driver selection.
Do you ship live Parp2 animals?
When catalog lines are live, we ship with health certificates and QC documentation. If your exact combo is not listed, we quote a model generation project with cryo or live dispatch options depending on cohort timing and geography.
How do I request a quote for Parp2?
Use the catalog inquire buttons or the request quote form with your allele goal, Cre plan if any, strain background, and cohort size. A PhD led team responds with pricing, milestones, and the fastest path to experimental animals.
