ГЕНОТИПЫ МЛЕКОПИТАЮЩИХ ДЛЯ БИОМЕДИЦИНСКИХ ИССЛЕДОВАНИЙ

“…Этот внушительный список полиморфизмов постоянно пополняется, чему способствуют совершенствование и удешевление методов прочтения геномов (секвенирование), а также развитие информационных технологий, обеспечивающих накопление и переработку гигантских баз данных.Вклад генетического разнообразия лабораторных животных в развитие фундаментальных и прикладных биомедицинских исследований наглядно иллюстрирует динамика публикаций, которая только для работ, основанных на изучении трансгенных мышей, выросла с единичных статей в конце 1980-х годов до 13–14 тыс. публикаций в год в 2010–2012 гг.Таким образом, создание, сохранение, разведение и изучение различных генетических линий лабораторных животных становятся заметными компонентами современной биологии, которая требует подготовки специалистов, обладающих мультидисциплинарными знаниями в таких областях биологии, как генетика (в том числе генная инженерия) и селекция, иммунофизиология, этология, специализированные зоотехния и ветеринария, биоинформатика. …”
