Transgenic animals mice ppt. In this example, chimeric mice are bred with c57bl/6 animals. Transgenic animals are animals (most commonly mice) that have had a foreign gene deliberately inserted into their genome. Transgenic mice have provided the tools for exploring many biological questions.
You just clipped your first slide! Methods for producing transgenic animals: After injecting the dna, the embryo is implanted into the uterus of receptive females.
The main principle in the production of transgenic animals is the introduction of a foreign gene or genes into an animal (the inserted genes are called transgenes).the foreign genes must be transmitted through the germ line, so that every cell, including germ cells, of the animal contains the same modified genetic material 18.
