Summary: Mouse Nkx2‐5 gene is essential for early heart development and it is regulated by a complex array of regulatory modules. In order to establish an efficient in vivo system for mapping the Nkx2‐5 genomic locus for regulatory regions, we developed improved homologous recombination technology for use in Escherichia coli and then knocked an IRES‐hrGFP reporter gene into Nkx2‐5 gene in a 120 kb Nkx2‐5 bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone. We employed the recombination genes redα and redβ under the pBAD promoter, which was specifically induced by the addition of L‐arabinose. Recombination was selected for by our universal targeting cassette which conferred kanamycin resistance in bacterial cells and neomycin resistance in mammalian cells. Transgenic mouse lines generated from this modified BAC clone closely resembled the endogenous Nkx2‐5 expression in the heart, pylorus sphincter, and spleen, but expression was not detected in the tongue. Nkx2‐5 BAC‐GFP expression was copy number‐dependent and locus site‐independent. BAC transgenics using the GFP reporter offers an efficient model system to study gene expression and regulation. genesis 35:220–226, 2003. © 2003 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. |
