Conditional alleles are commonly used by geneticists to controlwhen (temporal) and where (spatial) specific traits are expressed.In this question, you should outline a strategy utilizing thegenetic tools that we have discussed during class. It might besimpler to draw a diagram of the engineered loci. Include all thecomponents that are required for the experiment to be successful.(Tools: Cre-Lox and FLP-FRT recombination, forgot to previouslylist the tools)
A) What strategy could you use to switch off gene expression inliver cells?
B) Why is a conditional allele valuable for scientists whenstudying gene function?
C) What strategy could you use to switch on gene expression inliver cells in an adult mouse?
