Abstract excerpt
'In-out' gene targeting using a hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) minigene was applied to generate two new alleles in the gene (Apob) coding for apolipoprotein B (apo B) in murine embryonic stem (ES) cells. Homologous integration of the targeting vector during the 'in step' disrupted the Apob gene leading to an allele encoding apo B81, having a 19% carboxyl-terminal truncation. All six targeted cells...
