Technical Detail
Are both alleles affected or only one via knock-in technology? The article is unspecific pertaining to that question. 84.112.136.52 (talk) 19:50, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I think that may be confusing to say that "the difference between knock in and transgenic technology" or something like that. In fact, the knock-in gene targeting methods are a subset of transgenesis. In other words, if you knock-out or knock-in a gene you are doing transgenesis because the resultant organism (mouse, fly, etc) carries an exogenous piece of DNA. May be we can say "the difference between knock-in and OTHER transgenesis technologies". It also could be useful to remark that the main difference between knock-out and knock-in is that, even though both are targeted mutagenesis methods, knock-out results in gene disruption and loss of function, whereas knock-in results in gene replacement with the intention to investigate the behaviour of an in-vitro modified version of the wild type gene. I am sorry for my english, I am still learning your language.
