research Correction of Ornithine Transcarbamylase (OTC) Deficiency in Spf-Ash Mice by Introduction of Rat OTC Gene
The study introduced the rat ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) gene into OTC-deficient spf-ash mice, resulting in significant improvements in enzyme activity and metabolic markers.

These transgenic mice displayed normal hair growth, nearly normalized urinary orotic acid excretion, and normalized serum citrulline concentration, indicating a successful correction of the OTC deficiency.
