Transgene Expression of Green Fluorescent Protein and Germ Line Transmission in Cloned Calves Derived from In Vitro-Transfected Somatic Cells1
1 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
In vitro transfection of cultured cells combined with nuclear transfer currently is the most effective procedure to produce transgenic livestock. In the present study, bovine primary fetal fibroblasts were transfected with a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-reporter transgene and used as nuclear donor cells in oocyte reconstructions. Because cell synchronization protocols are less effective after transfection,...
