Redesign of the monomer–monomer interface of Cre recombinase yields an obligate heterotetrameric complex

Cre recombinase catalyzes the cleavage and religation of DNA at loxP sites. The enzyme is a homotetramer in its functional state, and the symmetry of the protein complex enforces a pseudo-palindromic symmetry upon the loxP sequence. The Cre-lox system is a powerful tool for many researchers. However, broader application of the system is limited by the fixed sequence preferences of Cre, which ar...

Megakaryocyte-restricted expression of the Cre recombinase.

doi:10.1160/TH11-03-0150 Thromb Haemost 2011; 106: 554 Dear Sirs, In the recently published work from Adam Nowakowski et al. “Megakaryocyte gene targeting mediated by restricted expression of recombinase Cre” (Thromb Haemost 2011; 105.1) the authors present a transgenic mouse strain that allows Cre expression under the control of the alphaIIb promoter (1). Nowakowski et al. (1) suggest that thi...

Enhancing the Specificity of Recombinase-Mediated Genome Engineering through Dimer Interface Redesign

Despite recent advances in genome engineering made possible by the emergence of site-specific endonucleases, there remains a need for tools capable of specifically delivering genetic payloads into the human genome. Hybrid recombinases based on activated catalytic domains derived from the resolvase/invertase family of serine recombinases fused to Cys2-His2 zinc-finger or TAL effector DNA-binding...

Mutants of Cre recombinase with improved accuracy

Despite rapid advances in genome engineering technologies, inserting genes into precise locations in the human genome remains an outstanding problem. It has been suggested that site-specific recombinases can be adapted towards use as transgene delivery vectors. The specificity of recombinases can be altered either with directed evolution or via fusions to modular DNA-binding domains. Unfortunat...
