Production of cloned goats by nuclear transfer of cumulus cells and long‐term cultured fetal fibroblast cells into abattoir‐derived oocytes
29 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
Dairy goats are ideal for the transgenic production of therapeutic recombinant proteins. The use of recombinant somatic cell lines for nuclear transfer (NT) allows the introduction of genes by transfection, increases the efficiency of transgenic animal production to 100%, and overcomes the problem of founder mosaicism. Although viable animals have been cloned via NT from somatic cells of 11 species, the...
