Abstract
Novel murine polynucleotides are disclosed that individually identify novel genes into which a retroviral gene trap vector has integrated. Additionally, novel mutated murine ES cells are described that stably incorporate retroviral gene trap constructs into the specifically identified genes. The novel genes and cells thus defined are useful in functional genomic analysis, and in the discovery and development of new therapeutic and diagnostics agents and methods.

3. An in vitro process for producing an isolated polynucleotide incorporating a sequence capable of hybridizing to a sequence first disclosed in one of SEQ ID NOS:
- 1-1,159, comprising the steps of;
a) obtaining a polynucleotide template encoding a sequence capable of hybridizing to an GTS of SEQ ID NOS;
1-1,159;
b) contacting said template with a polynucleotide probe comprising at least about 25 contiguous bases first disclosed in SEQ ID NOS;
1-1,159;
c) processing the combined probe and template to allow the specific detection of the combined probe and template; and
d) isolating a clone encoding said template. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6)
