Expression of bovine β-lactoglobulin in the milk of transgenic mice

摘要

The use of transgenic animals to manipulate milk composition has considerable potential, both for the production of biomedical proteins and for the direct manipulation of milk composition for the improvement of dairy animals and their products (for reviews, see Wall et al. 1992; Yom & Bremel, 1993). Promoters from a number of milk protein genes from a variety of species have been tested for their ability to direct the expression of foreign proteins to the mammary gland (for review, see Maga & Murray, 1995).
