摘要 |
The present invention relates to a tetracycline repressor-mediated binary regulation system for the control of gene expression in transgenic animals. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that, in a non-human transgenic animal that carries a first transgene under the control of a modified promoter comprising a tetR operator sequence and a second transgene encoding the tetR repressor protein, expression of the first transgene may be efficiently induced by administering tetracycline to the animal. |
