High efficient gene targeting in rice field eel Monopterus albus by transcription activator-like effector nucleases

Genome editing plays an important role in the research of gene functions, gene correction and cell replacement therapy. Tradition- ally, genome editing is mainly dependent on the technology of homologous recombination (HR) and embryonic stem (ES) cell lines in mammals [1]. However, genome editing is...

Description
Summary:Genome editing plays an important role in the research of gene functions, gene correction and cell replacement therapy. Tradition- ally, genome editing is mainly dependent on the technology of homologous recombination (HR) and embryonic stem (ES) cell lines in mammals [1]. However, genome editing is severely limited by the low efficiency of HR and lack of ES cell lines in most organisms. Recently, the development of zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs),
