Abstract excerpt
The role of transcription in oligonucleotide (ODN)-directed gene modification has been investigated in mammalian cells. The importance of transcription is demonstrated using mammalian cell lines with varying degrees of transcription of the mutant LacZ reporter gene, residing in both episome and chromosome. Gene correction occurs more efficiently when the target gene is actively transcribed and antisense ODN is...
