Efficient reversal of phiC31 integrase recombination in mammalian cells.
Over the past decade, the integrase enzyme from phage phiC31 has proven to be a useful genome engineering tool in a wide variety of species, including mammalian cells. The enzyme efficiently mediates recombination between two distinct sequences, attP and attB, producing recombinant product sites, attL and attR. The reaction proceeds exclusively in a unidirectional manner, because integrase is u...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of chromosomal rearrangements in mammalian cells after phiC31-mediated integration.
Reports on insertional mutagenesis due to integration of gene therapy vectors into the host genome have raised concerns about the genetic manipulation of somatic cells. Previously, it was demonstrated that integrase phiC31 derived from a Streptomyces phage mediates site-specific integration into the host genome of mammalian cells in vitro and in vivo by recombining the attB recognition site in ...
متن کاملPhiC31 integrase induces a DNA damage response and chromosomal rearrangements in human adult fibroblasts
BACKGROUND PhiC31 integrase facilitates efficient integration of transgenes into human and mouse genomes and is considered for clinical gene therapy. However recent studies have shown that the enzyme can induce various chromosomal abnormalities in primary human embryonic cells and mammalian cell lines. The mechanisms involved are unknown, but it has been proposed that PhiC31 attachment sites in...
متن کاملmicronuclei versus chromosomal aberrations induced by x-ray in radiosensitive mammalian cells.
an experimental study was accomplished to compare estimation methods of ionizing radiations genotoxicity in mammalian cell cultures by means of two cytogenetic parameters with focus on aberrant cells characterized by multiple chromosomal damages.in vitro study was carried out on the genotoxicity of low-medium doses of 190 kv x-rays absorbed in chinese hamster ovary cell cultures. micronuclei an...
متن کاملChromosomal mutations induced by triplex-forming oligonucleotides in mammalian cells.
Specific recognition of a region of duplex DNA by triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFOs) provides an attractive strategy for genetic manipulation. Based on this, we have investigated the ability of the triplex-directed approach to induce mutations at a chromosomal locus in living cells. A mouse fibroblast cell line was constructed containing multiple chromosomal copies of the lambdasupFG1 vect...
