Abstract excerpt
Synthetic oligonucleotides had been employed in DNA repair and promised great potentials in gene therapy. To test the ability of single-stranded oligonucleotide (SSO)-mediated gene repair within a chromosomal site in human cells, a HeLa cell line stably integrated with mutant enhanced green fluorescence protein gene (mEGFP) in the genome was established. Transfection with specific SSOs successfully repaired the...
