The present invention relates to a method for tightly temporally controlling the biological activity of a protein of interest in a vertebrate, upon induction of the activity of a fusion protein comprising said protein of interest and an ERM polypeptide containing a mutated ligand binding domain of the human oestrogen receptor a, with a synthetic ligand that does not interfere with oestrogen signalling. In particular, the present invention concerns a method for generating tightly temporally-controlled targeted somatic mutations in a vertebrate, preferably a mouse, by inducing the activity of a fusion protein comprising a site- specific recombinase protein and an ERM polypeptide, with a synthetic ligand devoid of oestrogenic and anti-oestrogenic activities.

La présente invention concerne un procédé pour un contrôle temporaire ferme de l'activité biologique d'une protéine intéressante chez un vertébré, lors de l'induction de l'activité d'une protéine de fusion comprenant ladite protéine intéressante et un polypeptide ERM contenant un domaine de liaison au ligand muté du récepteur a des strogènes humains, celui-ci étant un ligand synthétique qui n'interfère pas avec la signalisation des strogènes. En particulier, la présente invention concerne un procédé pour générer des mutations somatiques ciblées avec un contrôle temporaire ferme chez un vertébré, de préférence une souris, en induisant l'activité d'une protéine de fusion comprenant une protéine recombinase régio-spécifique et un polypeptide ERM, avec un ligand synthétique dépourvu des activités strogénique et anti-strogénique.
