Gene targeting in embryonic stem cells and the manipulation of milk composition
Mice carrying mutated β-casein genes were created through gene targeting in embryonic stem cells using a replacement-type vector. β-casein was absent from the milk of homozygous mutant mice, and no mRNA was detectable from the mutant allele. The mutation was compatible with viability, fertility and...
