The gene is inactivated first and then this copy is used to generate knockout.
Methods for producing transgenic animals: The production of transgenic animals has focused mainly on producing models (e.g., the mouse) for basic and medical research. Transgenic animals are animals (most commonly mice) that have had a foreign gene deliberately inserted into their genome. If so, share your ppt presentation slides online.
