development using technological advances. The text provides information regarding the principles of the methods in mouse development, and it offers readers reliable experimental protocols and recipes described comprehensively by leaders in the field of enzymology. The text is divided into three sections and organized into 25 chapters. Below are several concepts covered by the text: Lentivirus transgenesis o Germline modification using mouse stem cellsElectroporationApplications of transposons in mouse geneticsFunctional genomics using transposon systemsThe use of DNA transposons in detecting cancer genes in miceRecombination, conditional mutagenesis and induction of tamoxifenGenetic fate mapping using recombinasesGenetic screens mouse ES cellsGene trap mutagenesisMouse mutagenesisSelf- renewal and pluripotencyTransgenic RNAi applicationsGene knockdownsTetracycline-controlled transcriptionGene expression profiling of mouse embryos The book is a comprehensive guide for students and professionals in genetics, cytology and molecular biology, who will find this book invaluable for their learning and practice.
