Transgenic animals applications ppt. 4 and in 1980s the transgenic mice is produced using the most popular microinjection technique 5. Methodology and Applications Transgenic mice. Methods for Creating Transgenic.

Methodology Retrovirus vector DNA microinjection Engineered embryonic stem cell Cre. Organisms containing integrated sequences of cloned DNA transgenes transferred using techniques of genetic engineering to include those of gene transfer and gene substitution are called transgenic animals. Let us have a detailed look at the process importance and applications of transgenic animals.

DNA Technology Biotechnology The use or alteration of cells or biological molecules for specific applications Transgenics Transgenic changed genes Recombinant DNA DNA from different species mixed together Natural or man-made Whole organisms or cells Possible because the genetic code is universal All life uses the same genetic code ATGC Amplifying DNA Need. Transgenic animals that produce useful biological products can be created by the introduction of the portion of DNA or genes which codes for a particular product such as human protein a-1-antitrypsin used to treat emphysema tissue plasmogen activator goat blood clotting factors VIII and IX sheep and lactoferrin cow. Transgenic animals produced with.

Transgenic animals have given great benefit to the field of biotechnology especially the fields of agriculture. The transgenic fish are being promoted as the first marketable transgenic animals for human consumption. A transgenic animal is one that carries a foreign gene that has been deliberately inserted into its genome.

Transgenic Animals Synthetic modified or other foreign genes can be introduced into animals and plants and the resulting transgenic organisms can be used to study the function of the genes for example by insertional mutagenesis to produce novel products or to serve as animal models for studies of inherited human diseases. The transgenic animals are genetically engineered and are also known as genetically modified organisms. Ful in generating transgenic animals but may have applications as transient gene-expression systems 15.

Transgenic farm animals are important in human medicine as a source of biologically active proteins as donors in xenotransplanta- tion and for a research in cell and gene therapy. The first genetically modified organism was engineered in the year 1980. Several different fish spe-cies including channel catfish common carp goldfish Japanese medaka loach northern pike rainbow trout salmon tilapia walleye and zebrafish for review.
