Abstract
Novel vectors are described that incorporate, inter alia, a novel 3′ gene trap cassette that does not encode a marker conferring antibiotic resistance and which can be used to efficiently trap, mutagenize, and identify previously unknown cellular genes. Vectors incorporating the presently described 3′ gene trap cassette find particular application in gene discovery, and the production of mutated cells and animals.
