Development of a single-chain, quasi-dimeric zinc-finger nuclease for the selective degradation of mutated human mitochondrial DNA.

Nucleic acids research - 1 Jul 2008

Minczuk Michal, Papworth Monika A, Miller Jeffrey C, Murphy Michael P, Klug Aaron

Abstract excerpt

The selective degradation of mutated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecules is a potential strategy to re-populate cells with wild-type (wt) mtDNA molecules and thereby alleviate the defective mitochondrial function that underlies mtDNA diseases. Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), which are nucleases con...
