Abstract excerpt
Gene targeting through homologous recombination in murine embryonic stem (ES) cells is already strongly suppressed by DNA mismatch-repair (MMR)-dependent anti-recombination when targeting construct and target locus differ at <1% of the nucleotide positions. We demonstrate that MMR activity also raises a strong impediment to gene modification mediated by small synthetic DNA oligonucleotide sequences. In the...
