Transgenic farm animals : progress report
Karl M. Ebert,J.E.S. Schindler +1 more
TL;DR: The research on transgenic farm animals is updated and a strategy for the production of transgenic goats is outlined, which aims to apply this novel approach to the large domestic species without altering their inherent genetic competence.

Transgenic animals expressing salivary proteins
Cecil W. Forsberg,Serguei P. Golovan,John P. Phillips +2 more
- 20 Apr 2000
TL;DR: In this article, a transgenic animal having within its genome a transgene construct for gastrointestinal tract specific expression of a protein is presented. But the authors do not specify how to obtain the protein expression.

Product and method for control of obesity
Christopher Ian Belyea,Frank Man-Woon Ng,Paul Vaughan +2 more
- 06 Nov 2000
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of treating obesity in a mammal, comprising the step of administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of an agent which increases the expression of beta-3 adrenergic receptors in the mammal, together with an agonist of the beta 3 adrenergic receptor.

Post-thaw ATP supplementation enhances cryoprotective effect of iodixanol in rat spermatozoa.
TL;DR: Iodixanol has cryoprotective effects during rat sperm freezing without any toxic effect and combinations of OptiPrep and ATP have a beneficial role in maintaining function of frozen-thawed rat spermatozoa for long period of incubation post-thaw.

Primer-directed enzymatic amplification of DNA with a thermostable DNA polymerase
Randall Keichi Saiki,David H. Gelfand,Susanne Stoffel,Stephen J. Scharf,Russell Higuchi,Glenn Thomas Horn,Kary B. Mullis,Henry A. Erlich +7 more
TL;DR: A thermostable DNA polymerase was used in an in vitro DNA amplification procedure, the polymerase chain reaction, which significantly improves the specificity, yield, sensitivity, and length of products that can be amplified.
Single-chain antigen-binding proteins

TL;DR: Three single-chain antigen-binding proteins are novel recombinant polypeptides, composed of an antibody variable light-chain amino acid sequence tethered to a variable heavy-chain sequence (VH) by a designed peptide that links the carboxyl terminus of the VL sequence to the amino terminusof the VH sequence.

Altering the genome by homologous recombination.
TL;DR: The current status of gene targeting with particular emphasis on germ line modification of the mouse genome is discussed, and the different methods so far employed to identify those rare embryonic stem cells in which the desired targeting event has occurred are described.

Disruption of the proto-oncogene int-2 in mouse embryo-derived stem cells: a general strategy for targeting mutations to non-selectable genes
TL;DR: A positive and negative selection procedure is described that enriches 2,000-fold for those cells that contain a targeted mutation in mouse embryo-derived stem cells.

Dramatic growth of mice that develop from eggs microinjected with metallothionein–growth hormone fusion genes
Richard D. Palmiter,Ralph L. Brinster,Robert E. Hammer,Myrna E. Trumbauer,Michael G. Rosenfeld,Neal C. Birnberg,Ronald M. Evans +6 more
TL;DR: A DNA fragment containing the promoter of the mouse metallothionein-I gene fused to the structural gene of rat growth hormone was microinjected into the pronuclei of fertilized mouse eggs, and seven mice developed that carried the fusion gene and six of these grew significantly larger than their littermates.
