Résumé

Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Cell Biology Developmental Biology Life Sciences & Biomedicine Reproductive Biology Science & Technology
Lentiviral vectors have recently emerged as an efficient method of transgene delivery to the germline of animals. We now demonstrate that combining this efficiency with embryo splitting procedures enables the production of monozygotic twins, one of which is transgenic. We propose that this approach can be used to generate animals in which cell or tissue transplantation can be achieved without the use of immunosuppressive regimes.
