CONDITIONAL MUTATIONS & MOSAIC ANALYSIS

CONDITIONAL MUTATIONS Permit temporal and/or tissue specific control over the loss of gene activity

Purposes of Conditional Mutations Examine later and/or tissue-specific functions of a gene required for viability Bypass lethality to examine later function Determine where gene function is required Find which tissue is the source of gene activity Determine “autonomy” of gene function

Conditional Alleles Small protein changes –Heat sensitive –Cold sensitive Engineered domains –Drug-dependent Recombination-induced genome modification (Mosaic analysis)

Isolation of conditional alleles Typically, generated at random –Point mutants –Labor intensive to identify –Rare, so not often done in multicellular organisms Can be created from known conditional alleles in similar genes

Directed creation of ts alleles

MOSAIC ANALYSIS

MOSAIC ANALYSIS - WHY? Purposes of Mosaic Analysis Examine later and/or tissue-specific functions of a gene required for viability Bypass lethality to examine later function Determine where gene function is required Find which tissue is the source of gene activity Determine “autonomy” of gene function Cell lineage analysis

Recombination-Induced Genome Modification Mediated by mitotic recombination Interchromosomal Intrachromosomal Must be induced (not normal) Site-specific enzymes »FLP recombinase »Cre recombinase
