Backlinks

Because of a change in brand, I want to redirect our subdomain.domain.com to a newdomain.com. The content being exactly the same, I was thinking of using a 301 wild card 301 redirect to newdomain.com. I noticed it is not possible to do a redirect in Google webmasters tool as you can with a root domain.

Is there a way I can do this redirect without losing all the backlinks referenced with Google?

All the best, mark
