Abstract

Process for producing mammals with defined genetic properties, particularly transgenic mammals. Animals which are derived completely from ES cells are obtained by injecting totipotent cells (embryonic stem cells or embryonic germ cells) genetically manipulated and cultured in vitro into tetraploid blastocysts and implanting the resulting embryo in a foster mother, in a single operation.
