Transgenic frogs
The binary Gal4–UAS system has been used to drive the tissue-specific expression of transgenes in a number of animal models. In the February 5 issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Katharine Hartley and colleagues at the Wellcome/CRC Institute Cambridge, UK, report application of the Gal4–UAS system to create transgenic Xenopus (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2002, 99:1377-1382).The authors generated Xenopus lines expressing constructs for the 'activator', the yeast trans
