Abstract excerpt
Precise manipulations of complex genomes by zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) depend on site-specific DNA cleavage, which requires two ZFN subunits to bind to two target half-sites separated by a spacer of 6 base pairs (bp). ZFN subunits consist of a specific DNA-binding domain and a nonspecific cleav...
