Description: This procedure is used for expressing human genes in a domestic animal's milk. The ?-lactoglobulin promoter is normally expressed in mammary cells, whereas the human hormone gene is not. In transgenic sheep, the recombinant DNA is expressed in mammary cells and the protein (hormone) is secreted into the milk, facilitating its isolation by biochemical techniques.
