PRODUCTION OF NUCLEAR TRANSFER-DERIVED SWINE THAT EXPRESS THE ENHANCED GREEN FLUORESCENT PROTEIN

Abstract excerpt

The ability to add or delete specific genes in swine will likely provide considerable benefits not just to agriculture but also to medicine, where pigs have potential as models for human disease and as organ donors. Here we have transferred nuclei from a genetically modified fibroblast cell line to porcine oocytes, matured in vitro under defined culture conditions, to create piglets expressing enhanced green...
