Abstract excerpt
The ability of the Cre/lox system to make precise genomic modifications is a tremendous accomplishment. However, recombination between cis-linked heterospecific lox sites limits the use of Cre- mediated exchange of DNA to systems where genetic selection can be applied. To circumvent this problem we carried out a genetic screen designed to identify novel mutant spacer-containing lox sites displaying enhanced...
