متن کاملGene Targeting and Transgenic Technologies
Recent progress in the development of molecular genetic methods enables the manipulation of genes in intact mammalian organisms. The power of such techniques to elucidate complex biological systems was initially recognized and exploited by developmental biologists and immunologists. More recently, the utility of these approaches for examining neural gene function in the context of the intact or...
متن کاملConditional transgenic technologies.
Transgenic technology has been revolutionised by the development of techniques that allow temporo-spatial control of gene deletion or expression in transgenic animals. The ability to switch gene expression 'on' or 'off' in restricted tissues at specific times allows unprecedented flexibility for exploring gene function in both health and disease. As use of these techniques grows in all areas of...
متن کاملImpact of transgenic technologies on functional genomics.
Gene transfer technologies in mammals are the focus of renewed interest owing to the recent emphasis on analyzing gene function in the postgenomic era. Three important developments in this area include transgenics, gene targeting and nuclear transfer or animal cloning. These technological innovations have enhanced our ability to analyze gene function at the level of the whole organism and have ...
متن کاملA 3D Searchable Database of Transgenic Zebrafish Gal4 and Cre Lines for Functional Neuroanatomy Studies
Transgenic methods enable the selective manipulation of neurons for functional mapping of neuronal circuits. Using confocal microscopy, we have imaged the cellular-level expression of 109 transgenic lines in live 6 day post fertilization larvae, including 80 Gal4 enhancer trap lines, 9 Cre enhancer trap lines and 20 transgenic lines that express fluorescent proteins in defined gene-specific pat...
