ABSTRACT
The EUCOMM and KOMP programs have generated targeted conditional alleles in mouse embryonic stem cells for nearly 10,000 genes. The availability of these stem cell resources will greatly accelerate the functional analysis of genes in mice and in cultured cells. We present a method for conditional ablation of genes in ES cells using vectors and targeted clones from the EUCOMM and KOMP conditional resources. Inducible homozygous cells described here provide a precisely controlled experimental system to study gene function in a model cell.
