variant forward lox site with 3 base changes in the spacer region (loxm2 forward)

The cre-lox system is used for site-specific recombination. Lox sites are 34 bp sequences of DNA that flank coding sequences. When cre recombinase is introduced, it can excise or invert the portions of DNA between two lox sites. If the two lox sites flanking the coding sequence are both forward or both reverse, the coding sequence will be excised, leaving one lox site behind. If the one site is forward and the other reverse, the coding sequence will be inverted.
