PSS hetero 돼지를 이용하여 PSS와 관련된 유전자를 cloning 하여 유전자 구조를 분석하고 세포내의 유전자의 존재를 확인하여 PSS 돼지의 유전양식을 밝히고자 실시되었고, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 615번 amino acid가 N과 n에서 각각 arginine과 cysteine으로 존재함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 6번 염색체(PSS 관련유전자)로부터 우성유전자 N과 열성유전자 n이 각각 유전자 좌위(locus)에 대립 유전자(alleles)로 존재함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이러한 alleles로 존재함으로써 각각의 유전자가 나뉘어져 유전됨을 알 수 있었다.

The Salmonella typhimurium cdd gene encoding cytidine deaminase (cyti-dine/2'-deoxycytidine aminohydrolase; EC 3.5.4.5.) was isolated through shotgun clon-ing by complementation of the E. coli odd mutation. By subsequent deletion and sub-cloning from the

The principal objective of this study was to clone transgenic embryos in order to improve the efficiency of transgenic animal production by the combination of microinjection and nuclear transplantation techniques. Mature female New Zealand White rabbits were superovulated by eCG and hCG treatments, fllowed by natural mating. Zygotes were collected from the oviducts at 18∼22 h after hCG injection by flushing with D-PBS containing 5% fetal calf serum(FCS). Two to three picoliters of green fluorescent protein(GFP) gene wa microinjected into male pronucleus. The foreign gene-injected zygotes were cultured in TCM-199 or RD medium containing 10% FCS with a monolayer of rabbit oviductal epithelial cells in a 5% CO2 incubator. The morulae expressing GFP gene were selected and their blastomeres were separated for the use of nuclear donor. Following nuclear transplantation of fluorescence-positive morula stage blastomeres, 13 (21.3%) out of 61 fused oocytes developed to blastocyst stage and all of the cloned blastocysts expressed GFP. The results indicate that the screening of transgene in rabbit embryos by GFP detection could be a promisible method for the preselection of transgenic embryos. Also the cloning of preselected transgenic embryos by nuclear transplantatin could be efficiently applied to the multiple production of transgenic animals.
