However, with this method, the insertion site, integrity, and copy number of the transgene cannot be controlled. Here, we present an integrase-based approach to produce transgenic mice via pronuclear injection, whereby an intact single-copy transgene can be inserted into predetermined chromosomal loci with high efficiency (up to 40%), and faithfully transmitted through generations. We show that neighboring transgenic elements and bacterial DNA within the transgene cause profound silencing and expression variability of the transgenic marker. Removal of these undesirable elements leads to global high-level marker expression from transgenes driven by a ubiquitous promoter. We also obtained faithful marker expression from a tissue-specific promoter. The technique presented here will greatly facilitate murine transgenesis and precise structure/function dissection of mammalian gene function and regulation in vivo.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"2011-05-10T00:00:00Z","extern":1,"volume":108,"month":"05","publication":"PNAS","citation":{"mla":"Tasic, Bosiljka, et al. “Site Specific Integrase Mediated Transgenesis in Mice via Pronuclear Injection.” PNAS, vol. 108, no. 19, National Academy of Sciences, 2011, pp. 7902–07, doi:10.1073/pnas.1019507108.","ista":"Tasic B, Hippenmeyer S, Wang C, Gamboa M, Zong H, Chen Tsai Y, Luo L. 2011.
