PEPCK-Cmus mouse
(重定向自Supermice)
PEPCK-C mice are mice (Mus musculus) which as a result of genetic modification have up to 100 times the concentration of the PEPCK-C enzyme in their muscles, compared to ordinary mice.
They were created by a team of American scientists led by Richard Hanson, professor of biochemistry at Case Western Reserve University at Cleveland, Ohio, to gain a greater understanding of the PEPCK-C enzyme, which is present mainly in the liver and kidneys.
