Efficient sequential gene regulation via FLP-and Cre-recombinase using adenovirus vector in mammalian cells including mouse ES cells.

abstract：:A rapid method to determine the allelic variants of the sheep PrP gene was developed. DNA samples from 128 Suffolk sheep (39 rams and 89 ewes) were screened by using polymerase chain reactions and dot-blot hybridization with 32P-labeled nine allele-specific oligonucleotide probes corresponding to the polymorphic PrP c...
