摘要: Contents Porcine embryonic fibroblasts (PEFs) are widely used as donor cells for somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) in pigs. Transfection of PEFs with exogenous DNA is essential producing genetically modified (GM; transgenic or knockout) pigs via SCNT. In this case, selectable markers strictly required selecting and enriching stably transfected cells. The most frequently selective drug purpose a neomycin analogue (G418 ⁄ geneticin); neo has been marker gene the genomic manipulation However, little known about optimal concentrations other selection drugs. This often hampers functional analysis porcine genome development individual GM study explores drugs, than neomycin, that can be PEFs. were incubated media containing different drugs up to 10 days, determine fatal following found use PEFs: G418 geneticin, 400 lg ml; blasticidin S, 8 hygromycin B, 40 puromycin, 2 zeocin, 800 ml. Repeated transfections plasmids carrying resulted generation multidrug-resistant swine transfectants. Furthermore, these independent. present information will useful production SCNTmediated piglets express multiple transgenes.
