| 摘要 |
Disclosed herein are methods of identifying inhibitors of gene silencing or re-silencing, which can include repressing expression of a selectable marker gene in mammalian cells, treating the cells with at least one test compound, growing the cells under selective conditions, and quantifying the relative number of cells that live, wherein a change in the relative number of cells as compared to cells that were not treated with the test compound, identifies the compound as an inhibitor of gene silencing or re-silencing. Also disclosed herein are transgenic mice and isolated cell lines that are useful in the disclosed methods and kits for use in performing the disclosed methods. |
