Stable gene replacement in barley by targeted double-strand break induction.
Gene targeting is becoming an important tool for precision genome engineering in plants. During gene replacement, a variant of gene targeting, transformed DNA integrates into the genome by homologous recombination (HR) to replace resident sequences. We have analysed gene targeting in barley (Hordeum vulgare) using a model system based on double-strand break (DSB) induction by the meganuclease I...
متن کاملTargeted molecular trait stacking in cotton through targeted double-strand break induction
Recent developments of tools for targeted genome modification have led to new concepts in how multiple traits can be combined. Targeted genome modification is based on the use of nucleases with tailor-made specificities to introduce a DNA double-strand break (DSB) at specific target loci. A re-engineered meganuclease was designed for specific cleavage of an endogenous target sequence adjacent t...
متن کاملMarkerless gene replacement in Escherichia coli stimulated by a double-strand break in the chromosome.
A simple and efficient gene replacement method, based on the recombination and repair activities of the cell, was developed. The method permits the targeted construction of markerless deletions, insertions and point mutations in the Escherichia coli chromosome. A suicide plasmid, carrying the mutant allele and the recognition site of meganuclease I- Sce I, is inserted into the genome by homolog...
متن کاملDouble strand break repair.
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most dangerous form of DNA damage and can lead to death, mutation, or malignant transformation. Mammalian cells use three major pathways to repair DSBs: homologous recombination (HR), classical nonhomologous end joining (C-NHEJ), and alternative end joining (A-NHEJ). Cells choose among the pathways by interactions of the pathways with CtIP and 53BP1. HR i...
متن کاملDNA double-strand break repair
The integrity of genomic DNA is crucial for its function. And yet, DNA in living cells is inherently unstable. It is subject to mechanical stress and to many types of chemical modification that may lead to breaks in one or both strands of the double helix. Within the cell, reactive oxygen species generated by normal respiratory metabolism can cause double-strand breaks, as can stalled DNA repli...
