Area of Science:

  • Developmental Biology
  • Genetics
  • Molecular Biology

Context:

  • Mouse embryonic stem cells (ES cells) possess germ line colonization ability.
  • Homologous recombination in ES cells allows targeted gene modification.
  • The development of conditional mutations is an emerging area.

Purpose:

  • To leverage ES cells for advanced genetic manipulation in mice.
  • To create precise gene knockouts (null mutations) and subtle alterations.
  • To develop conditional mutation strategies for in vivo gene function studies.

Summary:

  • The ability of mouse embryonic stem cells (ES cells) to colonize the germ line provides powerful tools for genetic research.
  • Homologous recombination enables the introduction of specific mutations, including null and conditional types, into cloned genes.
