Types of Genetic Manipulation
              in Mouse


  Transgenics               Random
                           Insertion


 Homologous                 Targeted
Recombination              Modification
Reasons for Genetic Manipulation
                  in Mouse

1) Similarity to People (anatomically, anyway)

                                        Global
2) Disruption of Normal Genes
                                          Selective

3) “Lineage Tracing”
Transgenics in Mouse




“foo” promoter         “bar” gene
Transgenics in Mouse




“foo” promoter         “bar” gene




      “foo” domain              “bar” expresion
Transgenics in Mouse
        tissue-specific
foo?      time-specific
       drug-induced

   “foo” promoter         “bar” gene




                                         “bar”
         “foo” domain                  expression
Transgenics in Mouse
        tissue-specific       GFP LacZ
foo?      time-specific    Gene change       bar?
       drug-induced
                              ?other
   “foo” promoter         “bar” gene




                                         “bar”
         “foo” domain                  expression
Transgenics in Mouse
                Limitations


1) Limited knowledge of the promoter
                                (NFATc1 enhancer)
2) No regulation of insertion site
                                 (CCS-LacZ)
3) What happens to daughter cells?

  • 4. mouse Direct Genetic Manipulation
  • 5. Types of Genetic Manipulation in Mouse Transgenics Random Insertion Homologous Targeted Recombination Modification
  • 6. Reasons for Genetic Manipulation in Mouse 1) Similarity to People (anatomically, anyway) Global 2) Disruption of Normal Genes Selective 3) “Lineage Tracing”
  • 7. Transgenics in Mouse “foo” promoter “bar” gene
  • 8. Transgenics in Mouse “foo” promoter “bar” gene “foo” domain “bar” expresion
  • 9. Transgenics in Mouse tissue-specific foo? time-specific drug-induced “foo” promoter “bar” gene “bar” “foo” domain expression
  • 10. Transgenics in Mouse tissue-specific GFP LacZ foo? time-specific Gene change bar? drug-induced ?other “foo” promoter “bar” gene “bar” “foo” domain expression
  • 11. Transgenics in Mouse Limitations 1) Limited knowledge of the promoter (NFATc1 enhancer) 2) No regulation of insertion site (CCS-LacZ) 3) What happens to daughter cells?

  • 23. From Target to Mouse (in only a few years…) vector es cells null! blastocyst targeted cells germline! implanted into chimeric wild type surrogate offspring
  • 24. Homologous Recombination III What can the insertion consist of? bar bar bar-null allele bar mutant bar (point mutation, dominant negative, gain-of-function,…) “foo” substitution foo (alternate gene, marker,…) bar “floxed” bar ? what?
  • 25. What is “floxed” for? loxP site “floxed” bar bar “flanked” by loxP sites (i.e. “floxed”) In combination with Cre Recombinase… CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT!
  • 26. Conditional Knockouts bar foo cre bar
  • 27. Conditional Knockouts bar foo cre bar bar tissue-specific bar time- LacZ “foo” specific “bar” knockout specific bar bar′ drug-induced
  • 28. “Lineage Tracing” (foo-cre × Rosa-LacZ)
  • 29. “Lineage Tracing” (foo-cre × Rosa-LacZ) “foo” expression Daughter cells express LacZ with or without “foo” expression Tissue of also expreses “foo”, interest but outside of our tissue of interest
  • 30. “Lineage Tracing” (foo-LacZ) “foo” expression Daughter cells only express LacZ concurrent with Tissue of “foo” Still interest expressing “foo”
  • 31. Examples of Mouse techniques Transgenics Pax3 NC enahncer Knockout Nf1 knockout(s) “Knock-in” Hop-LacZ Pax3-cre KI Shp2 D61G (Brain, neural crest, CKO Nf1-flox endothelium, SMC, myocardium) “Lineage Tracing” ROSA26-LacZ (+cre lines)
  • 32. Current Problems OVERLAP of two (or more) regions (e.g. Neural crest & secondary heart field) Reliability of current-generation reporters (e.g. ROSA26 vs. GATA4-Flap) TRUE lineage tracing
