摘要:
Disclosed herein are zinc fingers comprising CCHC zinc coordinating residues. Also described are zinc finger proteins and fusion proteins comprising these CCHC zinc fingers as well as polynucleotides encoding these proteins. Methods of using these proteins for gene editing and gene regulation are also described.
摘要:
A method for deleting a region of DNA in a plant. In some embodiments, the method comprises transforming a plant with a nucleic acid molecule, wherein the nucleic acid molecule encodes one or more zinc finger nuclease(s) (ZFNs) operably linked to one or more tissue-specific promoter(s), e.g., a pollen-specific promoter. Methods include excising native genes in a plant. Accordingly, in some embodiments, ZFNs are engineered that recognize sequences that flank native plant genes. In further embodiments, ZFNs are expressed under the control of developmental stage-specific promoters, such that, for example, nucleic acid sequences are specifically excised in plants during relatively late stages of development. Nucleic acid molecules useful for carrying out disclosed methods and plants produced by the methods are included.

摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the expression of protein. Embodiments of methods may comprise the cleavage and repair of a nucleotide sequence encoding a highly expressed protein leading to a reduction in the expression of the highly expressed protein.
