Abstract excerpt
Artificial Transcription Factors (ATFs) are engineered DNA-binding proteins designed to bind specific sequences of DNA. ATFs made of Zinc Finger (ZF) domains have been developed to regulate specific genes and phenotypes both in cells and whole organisms. Recently, an emerging application of engineered DNA-binding domains include the specific editing of the genome, the ability to specifically cut, recombine,...
