to knockout and characterize all protein-coding genes in the mouse genome. Knocking out the activity of a gene provides valuable clues about what that gene normally does. However, creating and ...
To create a knockout mouse, scientists genetically engineer the animal by disrupting a gene of interest. This may be done by deleting portions of the gene's DNA sequence to make it nonfunctional ...
Genetic changes are a significant cause of infertility, impacting over 15% of the global population. TLE6, a major protein involved in early embryonic development, is known to affect female fertility.
