Dr Capecchi, winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine, holds his research partner, the knockout mouse. Dr Capecchi pioneered ways to target specific gene modifications in mice by utilizing embryonic stem (ES) cells. Commonly known as gene targeting or knockout, Dr Capecchi worked focused on the homologous recombination between DNA sequences residing in the chromosome and newly introduced DNA to mutate any genes of interest occurring in the mouse genome. |
