Their winning work was based on this genetic technology, which is Gene knockout or otherwise known as gene targeting in mice. In 2007, the winners of the Noble Prize for Medicine were Mario R. Capecchi (USA), Sir Martin Evans (UK) and Oliver Smithies (USA). In the following article, we will find out what this genetic engineering... Continue reading
Gene knockout, also called gene inactivation, is a genetic technique in which the expression of a particular gene in an organism is suppressed by replacing the original gene at its genetic locus with a modified version of the gene in which one or more exons have been deleted, resulting in organisms that do not express...
