EGTC

The gene trap technique is a powerful approach for characterizing and mutating genes involved in mouse development. However one shortcoming of gene trapping is the relative inability to induce subtle mutations. We have overcome this problem by introducing a knock-in system in the gene trap strategy and established the exchangeable gene trap vector, pU-Hachi, employing the Cre-mutated lox system.基因陷阱（gene trap）技术是用于表征与诱变小鼠发育相关基因的高效研究手段。然而，该技术存在一项固有局限：难以诱导产生精细突变。本研究通过在基因陷阱策略中引入敲入（knock-in）系统攻克了这一难题，并依托Cre突变lox（Cre-mutated lox）系统构建了可交换基因陷阱载体pU-Hachi。
