Expression of the human BRCA1 gene in porcine ST cells. (a) From hamster CHO cells exhibiting a high efficiency of microcell formation, the alphoidtetO -HAC/BRCA1 was transferred into the pig's testis fibroblast ST cells using MMCT technique. (b) FISH analysis of porcine cells containing the alphoidtetO-HAC/BRCA1. Chromosomal DNA was counterstained with DAPI (blue). Arrow indicates to the HAC. (c) Fluorescence image of cells carrying the alphoidtetO -HAC/BRCA1 containing the expressed eGFP transgene. (d) Expression of the human BRCA1 gene in porcine cells. RT-PCR analysis of genomic DNA isolated from the original ST cells (lane 4), from two porcine clones (pl4 and pl5) containing the alphoidtetO -HAC/BRCA1 (lanes 2 and 3) and from the human HeLa cells as a positive control (lane 1) using the human BRCA1-specific primers (Supplementary Table S1). The size of the predicted product is 839 bp. M-ladder containing alphoidtetO -HAC/BRCA1
