The genome of the cell contains a negative select - able marker, e.g., a thymidine kinase gene flanked by a pair of recombinase recognition sites (RRS), e.g., attP. The method involves o introducing into the cell a targeting construct that contains a gene of interest flanked by a second pair of RRS, e.g., attB. The target ing construct also contains in the vector backbone a negative selectable marker, e.g., thymidine kinase gene. When a recombinase re cognizing the RRS is expressed, the recombination events between the two pairs of RRS result in the site-specific integration of the gene of interest in the genome of the cell. Upon selection based on the negative selectable marker, the parental cells, cells with un- desired integration, e.g., random integration, or the integration of the vector backbone are removed. SITE-SPECIFIC INTEGRATION OF TRANSGENES CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application no. 62/320,863, filed April 11, 2016, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention generally relates to methods for integrating transgenes into a specific genomic locus in a cell. BACKGROUND [0003] Site-specific integration (i.e., knock-in) of a transgene into the chromosome of a mammalian cell is a technology that has broad applications in basic and applied biology. A typical process for site-specific integration involves the steps of 1) introducing a targeting vector containing a gene of interest into mammalian cells and 2) screening and selecting transfected cells with integration of the gene of interest at specific genomic locus. The efficiency of integration at a specific genomic locus is usually very low, and the screening and selection process is usually achieved by single cell cloning which is time consuming and labor intensive. In addition, the integration of the gene of interest together with the vector backbone DNA in the genome often leads to unwanted effects, such as the silencing of the gene of interest. Therefore, there is a continuing need to develop methods that can speed up the knock-in process and generate cells that do not contain the integration of the backbone DNA of the targeting vector. SUMMARY [0004] In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for inserting a transgene of interest into the genome of a cell. In one embodiment, the method comprises the step of introducing a targeting construct into a cell whose genome comprises a landing pad. The landing pad comprises sequentially (i) a first recombinase recognition site (RRS), (ii) a first negative selectable marker, and (iii) a second RRS. The targeting construct comprises (a) an exchange cassette and (b) a selectable cassette. The exchange cassette comprises sequentially (i) a third RRS, (ii) the transgene of interest, and (iii) a fourth RRS. The selectable cassette comprises a second negative selectable marker. The method further comprises the step of expressing a site-specific recombinase in the cell, wherein the site- specific recombinase recognizes at least the first and the third RRS. The cell is then maintained under a condition that facilitates recombination between the first and the third RRS, and between the second and the fourth RRS, wherein at least the recombination between the first and the third RRS is mediated by the site-specific recombinase. Cells with site-specific integration of the transgene are selected. [0005] In certain embodiments, the landing pad is located in the genome of the cell at a region of increased gene expression (RIDGE). Examples of the RIDGE include, without limitation, a Hippl 1 (HI 1) locus, a ROSA26 locus and a AAVS1 locus. [0006] In certain embodiments, the targeting construct can be liner or circular. [0007] In certain embodiments, the first negative selectable marker can be the same as the second negative selectable marker. In certain embodiments, the first and the second negative selectable marker can be different. In certain embodiments, the first or the second negative selectable marker is a thymidine kinase gene. [0008] In certain embodiments, the landing pad further comprises a positive selectable marker. In certain embodiments, the positive selectable marker is an aminoglycoside phosphotransferase gene (neomycin resistance gene), a puromycin-N-acetyl transferase (puromycin resistance gene) or a blasticidin S deaminase (blasticidin S resistance gene), or hygromycin B phosphotransferase gene (hygromycin resistance gene). [0009] In certain embodiments, the first RRS is the same as the second RRS. In certain embodiments, the first RRS is different from the second RRS. In certain embodiments, the third RRS is the same as the fourth RRS. In certain embodiments, the third RRS is different from the fourth RRS. In certain embodiments, each of the first, the second, the third and the fourth RRS is independently selected from the group consisting of attB, attP, FRT, loxP, mutants thereof and tandem repeats thereof. [0010] In certain embodiments, the site-specific recombinase is selected from the group consisting of Cre, Flp, the lambda integrase, gamma-delta resolvase, Tn3 resolvase, Sin resolvase, Gin invertase, Hin invertase, Tn5044 resolvase, IS607 transposase, Bxbl, wBeta, BL3, phiR4, A 118, TGI, MRU, phi370, SPBc, TP901-1, phiRV, FCl, K38, phiBTl and phiC3 1. [0011] In certain embodiments, the recombination between the second and the fourth RRS is mediated by a second site-specific recombinase. [0012] In certain embodiments, the landing pad further comprises a sequence encoding the site-specific recombinase. [0013] In certain embodiments, the cell is a mammalian cell. In certain embodiments, the cell is a rodent cell. In certain embodiments, the cell is a human cell. In certain embodiments, the cell is an embryonic stem cell or a zygote. [0014] In certain embodiments, the selecting step comprises exposing the cell to a selective agent. In certain embodiments, the selective agent is ganciclovir. [0015] In another aspect, the present disclosure provides an isolated cell, the cell comprising a landing pad located at a RIDGE in the genome of the cell. The landing pad comprises sequentially (i) a first RRS, (ii) a negative selectable marker, and (iii) a second RRS. In certain embodiments, the landing pad further comprises a positive selectable marker. In certain embodiments, the landing pad further comprises a polynucleotide sequence encoding a site-specific recombinase that recognizes at least the first or the second RRS. In certain embodiments, the first and the second RRS are phiC31 attP (SEQ ID NO: 1). [0016] In yet another aspect, the present disclosure provides a nucleic acid construct comprising (a) an exchange cassette and (b) a selectable cassette. The exchange cassette comprises sequentially (i) a first RRS, (ii) the transgene of interest, and (iii) a second RRS. The selectable cassette comprises a negative selectable marker. In certain embodiments, the first and the second RRS are phiC3 1 attB (SEQ ID NO: 2). [0017] These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become better understood with regard to the following description, appended claims and accompanying drawings.

  • The Fine Structure of the Parathyroid Gland*
    The Fine Structure of the Parathyroid Gland* BY JERRY STEVEN TRIER, M.D. (From the Department of Anatomy, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle) PLATES 3 TO 10 (Received for publication, July 29, 1957) ABSTRACT The fine structure of the parathyroid of the macaque is described, and is cor- related with classical parathyroid cytology as seen in the light microscope. The two parenchymal cell types, the chief cells and the oxyphil cells, have been recognized in electron mierographs. The chief cells contain within their cyto- plasm mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi bodies similar to those found in other endocrine tissues as well as frequent PAS-positive granules. The juxtanuclear body of the light microscopists is identified with stacks of parallel lamellar elements of the endoplasmic rcticulum of the ergastoplasmic or granular type. Oxyphll cells are characterized by juxtanuclear bodies and by numerous mito- chondria found throughout their cytoplasm. Puzzling lamellar whorls are described in the cytoplasm of some oxyphil cells. The endothelium of parathyroid capillaries is extremely thin in some areas and contains numerous fenestrations as well as an extensive system of vesicles. The possible significance of these structures is discussed. The connective tissue elements found in the perivascular spaces of macaque parathyroid are described. INTRODUCTION Other contributions to the present concepts con cerning the human parathyroid can be found in the It is the purpose of the present paper to report some observations on the fine structure of the reports of Bergstrand (7), Morgan (34), Pappen- parathyroid gland employing the electron micro- heimer and Wilens (45), Castleman and Mallory (10), and Gilmour (20).

This ever- changing educational endeavor has evolved into the annual Wednesday Slide Conference program in which cases are presented on 25 Wednesdays throughout the academic year and distributed to 135 contributing military and civilian institutions from around the world. Many of these institutions provide structured veterinary pathology resident training programs. During the course of the training year, histopathology slides, digital images, and histories from selected cases are distributed to the participating institutions and to the Department of Veterinary Pathology at the AFIP. Following the conferences, the case diagnoses, comments, and reference listings are posted online to all participants. This study set has been assembled in an effort to make Wednesday Slide Conference materials available to a wider circle of interested pathologists and scientists, and to further the education of veterinary pathologists and residents-in-training. The number of histopathology slides that can be reproduced from smaller lesions requires us to limit the number of participating institutions.

    Case Report doi: 10.5146/tjpath.2017.01407 Water-Clear Cell Adenoma of the Mediastinal Parathyroid Gland Deniz ARIK1, Emine DÜNDAR1, Evrim YILMAZ1, Cumhur SİVRİKOZ2 Department of 1Pathology and 2Thorax Surgery, Eskisehir Osmangazi University, Medicine Faculty, ESKİŞEHİR, TURKEY ABSTRACT Water-clear cell adenoma of the parathyroid gland is a rare neoplasm that consists of cells with abundant clear-pink cytoplasm. There have only been 19 cases reported in the English literature. Here we report a case of water-clear cell adenoma of the mediastinal parathyroid gland. A 70-year-old male patient presented to the hospital with back pain and a mediastinal mass 6 cm in size was detected. After excision and microscopic evaluation, uniform, large clear cells with fine cytoplasmic vacuolization, without nuclear atypia, and arranged in solid and acinar patterns were revealed. The cells formed nests that were separated by fine fibrovascular septae and stained positively with anti-parathyroid hormone. To the best of our knowledge, this has not been previously reported in this location. In the differential diagnosis of clear cell lesions of the mediastinum, water-clear cell parathyroid adenoma should be considered. Key Words: Water-clear cell, Adenoma, Ectopic tissue, Mediastinum, Parathyroid gland INTRODUCTION did not have high glycolytic activity. The serum calcium and parathyroid hormone levels were not evaluated. Surgical Water-clear cell parathyroid adenoma (WCCA) is very excision was planned by the initial diagnosis of a bronchial rare. Only nineteen cases have been reported in the English cyst, pathological lymph node or low-grade malignancy. literature (1-17). Water-clear cells (WCCs) are large In open surgery, by intraoperative consultation (frozen polygonal cells with a small nucleus and large optically section) of the biopsy, a lesion with clear cells was seen, but clear cytoplasm.
