Abstract excerpt
Targeted gene repair, a form of oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis, employs end-modified single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides to mediate single-base changes in chromosomal DNA. In this work, we use a specific 72-mer to direct the repair of a mutated eGFP gene stably integrated in the genome of DLD-1 cells. Corrected cells express eGFP that can be identified and quantitated by FACS. The repair of this mutant...
