Research Abstract |
Mutagenesis of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells provides a powerful resource for functional analyses of genes. Emerging cell culture techniques for directed differentiation of ES cells will further accelerate this trend. The diploid nature of the mammalian genome often hampers this process because both alleles need to be mutated for each gene. In the present study, we develop a novel method to rapidly mutate diploid genome of mouse ES cells and generate homozygous mutants. This method will facilitate gene function study in tissue culture systems.
