Cre-Lox System: Conditional Gene Knockout and Site-Specific Recombination
Offered By: Animated biology With arpan via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the Cre-loxP system, a site-specific recombination technique used for conditional gene knockout, in this 12-minute educational video. Learn about the functionality of recombinase enzymes and how to create cell type-specific conditional knockouts using the Cre-loxP system. Discover the applications of spatiotemporal control in gene knockout experiments and understand how this system can be utilized to label cell types for morphological investigations. Gain insights into this integral experimental tool widely used in genetics and molecular biology research.
