Abstract excerpt
Single-stranded oligonucleotides (ssODNs) and zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) are two approaches that are being pursued to achieve sequence specific genome modification. ZFNs induce high rates of homologous recombination (HR) between the target sequence and a given donor by introducing site-specific genomic double-strand breaks (DSBs). The mode of action that is used by ssODNs remains largely unknown, but may...
