Abstract excerpt
Transgenic animal models for measuring mutations provide a powerful tool for rapidly assessing tissue-specific mutations following in vivo treatment. These models are based on the insertion into the rodent genome of the Escherichia coli lacI (lac repressor) or lacZ (beta-galactosidase) genes that serve as targets for mutations. Following in vivo treatment of animals, genomic DNA is isolated from various tissues...
