Induction of Homologous Recombination in Mammalian Chromosomes by Using the I-<i>Sce</i>I System of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
The mitochondrial intron-encoded endonuclease I-SceI of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has an 18-bp recognition sequence and, therefore, has a very low probability of cutting DNA, eve...
High-Efficiency FLP and ΦC31 Site-Specific Recombination in Mammalian Cells
DNA site-specific recombinases (SSRs) such as Cre, FLPe, and phiC31, are powerful tools for analyzing gene function in vertebrates. While the availability of multiple high-effic...
Simple Mendelian inheritance of the reiterated ribosomal DNA of yeast.
A diploid strain of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was found to be heterozygous for two forms of the highly repetitious ribosomal DNA. These forms could be distinguished by th...
Introduction of double-strand breaks into the genome of mouse cells by expression of a rare-cutting endonuclease.
To maintain genomic integrity, double-strand breaks (DSBs) in chromosomal DNA must be repaired. In mammalian systems, the analysis of the repair of chromosomal DSBs has been lim...
Recombination Induced by Triple-Helix-Targeted DNA Damage in Mammalian Cells
Gene therapy has been hindered by the low frequency of homologous recombination in mammalian cells. To stimulate recombination, we investigated the use of triple-helix-forming o...
