novel in vivo mutagenesis mechanism:
-construct target genomic DNA with really strong promoter with retrovirus recognition sequence (R U5 PBS etc to ensure that only this is reverse transcribed)
-transcribe into RNA using a crap RNA pol that introduces mutations
-reverse transcribe into DNA using an overexpressed reverse transcriptase (overexpressed to ensure that this happens before DNA is degraded)
-insert into genome via homologous recombination using an equivalent of infusion enzyme (maybe RecA?)
