Dallas-based Colossal is one step closer to bringing back the woolly mammoth.

However, because so many mouse genes are similar to human genes, geneticists can generate knockout mice in which the mouse counterpart of a human gene of interest is deleted or disrupted.

Mayo Clinic's Precision Mouse Engineering Core in Minnesota can construct gene-targeted vectors for mice to assist researchers.

The Knockout Mouse Phenotyping Program (KOMP2) sites at Baylor College of Medicine, Jackson Laboratory, and University of California, Davis, are collaborating with the International Mouse Phenotyping ...
