The production of transgenic animals includes- (i) Location, identification and separation of desired gene. (ii) Selection of proper vector (generally a virus) of direct transmission (iii) Combining the desired gene with the vector . (iv) Introduction of transferred vectors in cell , tissues embryo or mature individual . (v) Demonstration of intergration and expression of foreign gene in transgenic tissue or animals.
