Site-specific recombination systems are powerful tools for introducing predetermined modifications into eukaryotic genomes. Recent advances allow the manipulation of chromosomal DNA in a spatially and temporally controlled manner in mice, offering unprecedented possibilities for studying mammalian genome function and for generating animal models for human diseases.
位点特异性重组系统是将预定修饰引入真核基因组的强大工具。最近的进展使得能够以空间和时间可控的方式在小鼠中操纵染色体DNA,为研究哺乳动物基因组功能以及生成人类疾病动物模型提供了前所未有的可能性。
