A large-scale in vivo analysis reveals that TALENs are significantly more mutagenic than ZFNs generated using context-dependent assembly [PDF]
Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) and TAL effector nucleases (TALENs) have been shown to induce targeted mutations, but they have not been extensively tested in any animal model. Here, we describe a large-scale comparison of ZFN and TALEN mutagenicity in

Generation and characterization of transcription activator-like effector nucleases
Designer nucleases are developed to modify the genome in various organisms, and are promising molecular tools for the advancement of gene therapy. They should introduce only one specific double-strand or single-strand break in a complex genome in order to trigger the DNA repair mechanisms of the cell such that the DNA damage is repaired by homologous ...

Quantitative assay for TALEN activity at endogenous genomic loci
Summary Artificially designed nucleases such as zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) can induce a targeted DNA double-strand break at the specific target genomic locus, leading to the frameshift ...

Revisiting the TALE repeat [PDF]
Transcription activator-like (TAL) effectors specifically bind to double stranded (ds) DNA through a central domain of tandem repeats. Each TAL effector (TALE) repeat comprises 33–35 amino acids and recognizes one specific DNA base through a highly ...

An efficient strategy for TALEN-mediated genome engineering in Drosophila [PDF]
In reverse genetics, a gene's function is elucidated through targeted modifications in the coding region or associated DNA cis-regulatory elements. To this purpose, recently developed customizable transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs ...
