Utility of a C57BL/6 ES line versus 129 ES lines for targeted mutations in mice.

Abstract excerpt

Inbred ES lines, though useful for generating targeted mutations in mice, are used infrequently. To appreciate the relative efficiency of inbred ES lines, a C57BL/6 ES line was compared with 129 strain ES lines for effectiveness in chimera formation leading to the establishment of targeted mutations in mice. Data from a transgenic facility spanning 7 years were collected. C57BL/6 ES cells injected into Balb/c...
