1. A co-transfection assay for the occurrence of FLP-mediated recombination, said assay comprising:

  • (a) co-transfecting a host mammalian cell with;

    (i) a FLP expression plasmid comprising a promoter operably linked to a gene encoding FLP recombinase wherein said promoter is active in said cell, and(ii) a reporter plasmid comprising a nonfunctional reporter gene wherein said nonfunctional reporter gene is inactivated by the presence of extraneous DNA flanked by FLP recombination target sites; and

    (b) monitoring said host cell under a variety of conditions for the gain of expression of functional reporter gene product.
