Raising and breeding the hybrid animals, they say, could imperil living animals used as surrogates. “While we know a lot about mouse genetics, we know much less about mammoths and elephants. It isn’t ...

1.2.2 Castle, Little, and the founders of mouse genetics The most significant force in early genetic work on the mouse was William Ernest Castle, who directed the Bussey Institute at Harvard ...

Colossal CEO Ben Lamm reaffirmed that the company has no plans to create a real-life Jurassic Park — and said that humanity ...

Scientists looking to bring the extinct woolly mammoth back to life have made adorable progress—using gene editing to create a "woolly mouse." The team at genetics and biotech firm Colossal ...

This piecewise similarity between the mouse and human genomes means that insights into mouse genetics are likely to illuminate human genetics as well. Scientists now have the ability to sequence ...

The significance of the interspecific cross for mouse genetics cannot be understated: it was the single most important factor in the development of a whole genome linkage map based on molecular ...

Scientists at the "de-extinction" startup Colossal Biosciences studied mammoth DNA to recreate their woolly hair in lab mice.

Genetics hold far more sway over the mouse microbiome than transient environmental exposures, researchers reported July 26 in Applied and Environmental Microbiology. The results appear to contradict ...

As shown in the Timeline, large-scale mouse mutagenesis is divided into three phases. In 1997, ENU mutagenesis began with the use of forward genetics, primarily focusing on dominant phenotypes.

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 ...

“While we know a lot about mouse genetics, we know much less about mammoths and elephants. It isn’t yet known which sections of the genome are vital for achieving the characters ...
