Lost in transgenesis: a user's guide for genetically manipulating the mouse in cardiac research.
The advent of modern mouse genetics has benefited many fields of diseased-based research over the past 20 years, none perhaps more profoundly than cardiac biology. Indeed, the heart is now arguably one of the easiest tissues to genetically manipulate, given the availability of an ever-growing tool chest of molecular reagents/promoters and "facilitator" mouse lines. It is now possible to modify ...
متن کاملTransgenesis in C. elegans.
The ability to manipulate the genome of organisms at will is perhaps the single most useful ability for the study of biological systems. Techniques for the generation of transgenics in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans became available in the late 1980s. Since then, improvements to the original approach have been made to address specific limitations with transgene expression, expand on the re...
متن کاملTransgenesis in nonmurine species.
Although the mouse remains the species of choice for most transgenic experimentation, it may be preferable or even necessary to use alternative species for certain applications. We review the strategies by which transgenic technology has been applied to other animals, specifically, the rat, rabbit, pig, sheep, goat, and cow. Additionally, we outline the potential applications of alternative tra...
متن کاملTransgenesis in farm animals
The production of transgenic animals has many biotechnological applications; however, available techniques still remain inefficient. This review summarizes the contributions of our group to transgenesis in domestic animal. One of the most traditional transgenesis techniques in farm animals is somatic cell nuclear transfer using genetically modified somatic cells. Using this technique, we produc...
متن کاملProgress with schistosome transgenesis.
Genome sequences for Schistosoma japonicum and Schistosoma mansoni are now available. The schistosome genome encodes ~13,000 protein encoding genes for which the function of only a minority is understood. There is a valuable role for transgenesis in functional genomic investigations of these new schistosome gene sequences. In gain-of-function approaches, transgenesis can lead to integration of ...
