Using the following 11 pieces only, design a transgene and a
transcription factor target gene that could be deleted within any cell in such a way
to create a neomorphic allele using Tamoxifen induction.
All splice forms of the transcription factor lead to functional proteins. You can assume
SD, SA and pA sites are not listed and will be found in the appropriate places in the two genes .
