Rational design yields RNA-binding zinc finger domains with altered sequence specificity.

Abstract excerpt

Targeting and manipulating endogenous RNAs in a sequence-specific manner is essential for both understanding RNA biology and developing RNA-targeting therapeutics. RNA-binding zinc fingers (ZnFs) are excellent candidates as designer proteins to expand the RNA-targeting toolbox, due to their compact size and modular sequence recognition. Currently, little is known about how the sequence of RNA-binding ZnF domains...
