Abstract excerpt
At present, the limitation of Phenotype-based genetic screening in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) is the diploid nature of the genome. Since it is known that cells deficient in the Bloom's syndrome gene (Blm) show an increased rate of homologous recombination, we have developed a new system to conditionally regulate the Blm allele for introduction of bi-allelic mutations across the genome. Transient deficiency of...
