Abstract

The transgenic mice containing recombinant pATV-8 plasmid, produced by insertion of the provirus DNA of RSV into pBR322 were obtained. The type of the transgene DNA inheritance cannot be explained by the insertion of its copies into one chromosomal site. In certain transgenic mice lines the phenotypic disorders were observed.
