Sperm, transgenic instrument
Text created by automatic translator Elia and has not been subsequently revised by translators. Elia Elhuyar
The first transgenic sperm have recently appeared in the Honolulu laboratory of Ryuzo Yanagimachi.
For this purpose, male burlados-gametes with plant gene are used. For them to become transgenic, Hawaii biologists, after removing the membrane from the sperm, immerse them in the grains of a marker plant gene. The embryos thus obtained are transplanted: 20% of the mice born have a foreign gene.
This method may be more interesting than cloning for transgenic animals. 1.
