The ovine beta-lactoglobulin gene is expressed efficiently and at high
levels in the mammary gland of transgenic mice. In contrast, when this gene
is linked to a second gene construct comprising a mammalian cDNA or a CAT
reporter sequence it fails to be expressed in the majority of transgenic
lines generated. We suggest that mammalian cDNAs and prokaryotic reporter
sequences can serve as active foci for gene silencing in the mammalian
genome.
