The mouse, which has long been
used as a laboratory animal, is an ideal model on which to study
gene function. Nearly twenty years ago the first transgenic mice
were produced by inserting transgenes into the mouse genome.

This technique does not allow
the selection of the insertion site or the copy number. Homologous
recombination targets the mutation to a locus of interest. This
technological breakthrough allows the inactivation of genes (knock-out
models) and the targeted insertion of transgenes (knock-in models).

Cells containing the modification
will transmit the mutation to the whole organism. In certain conditions,
such as a deleterious effect of a mutation, it is necessary to limit
the modification tissue-specifically. Tissue-restricted mutation
has thus been developed (conditional strategies).

Recently, two techniques have
been developed: nuclear transfer and the use of lentiviruses in
place of transgene micro-injection.
|
| |
|
| |
The nuclear transfer should
pave the way for development of gene targeted models in species
other than the mouse.
The lentiviruses could provide an efficient system to generate transgenic
models in new species, but their use is limited to small-size transgenes
