Abstract:A human bacteriophage clone containing adult beta-globin genes with four Alu sequences was microinjected to produce transgenic mice. Southern blot analysis on the spleen of a transgenic mouse revealed an unusual hybridization pattern that suggested extensive dispersion of human DNA throughout the mouse genome. This pattern was reproducible using several restriction enzymes, including a noncutting enzyme. The hybridization pattern was not observed in other tissues, and sequences were not detected in progeny usi… Show more
