Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to inactivate, by insertional mutagenesis, all protein-coding genes in mouse undifferentiated embryonic-stem (ES) cells, the knockout mouse project (KOMP) had been carried out in the USA, Canada, UK, and Germany as a large-scale and international collaborative effort. In Japan, on the other hand, a gene-trapping strategy termed UPATrap, which we had originally developed, was further upgraded in the national bio-resource project (NBRP) of Monka-sho (MEXT). In the current research, we have tried to establish a novel methodology for the random disruption (trapping) of the transcriptionally silent genes of non-coding RNAs in the target cells.
