Abstract

In attempting to produce a mutant mouse with embryonic stem cells, the critical step is the efficient isolation of homologous recombinants; the frequency of the homologous recombination is usually low and the potency of the cells to differentiate into germ cells is unstable in culture. Here, we report an efficacious method for such isolation in which the diphtheria toxin A-fragment gene is used to negatively select nonhomologous recombinants. In contrast to the use of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene, the selection can be made singly by the neomycin analog G418 without using a drug such as ganciclovir, a nucleoside analog. At the c-fyn locus, the diphtheria-toxin negative selection enriched the recombinants about 10-fold, and half of the cells integrating with the neomycin phosphotransferase gene were homologous recombinants.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
