Abstract excerpt
We have generated transgenic mice that harbor a 140 kb genomic fragment of the human BRCA1 locus (TgN x BRCA1GEN). We find that the transgene directs appropriate expression of human BRCA1 transcripts in multiple mouse tissues, and that human BRCA1 protein is expressed and stabilized following exposure to DNA damage. Such mice are completely normal, with no overt signs of BRCA1 toxicity commonly observed when...
