Targeted genome editing by lentiviral protein transduction of zinc-finger and TAL-effector nucleases
Future therapeutic use of engineered site-directed nucleases, like zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), relies on safe and effective means of delivering nucleases to cells.

DevA, a GntR-like transcriptional regulator required for development in streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]
The gram-positive filamentous bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor has a complex developmental cycle with three distinct phases: growth of the substrate mycelium, development of reproductive structures called aerial hyphae, and differentiation of these ...

Genome Engineering of Crops with Designer Nucleases
Recent advances in the field of genome engineering indicate that it will soon be routine to make site-directed modifications to the genomes of crop species, including targeted mutations, gene insertions, and gene replacements. This new technology will be

Treatment of infectious diseases by in vivo gene editing
Gene editing is the specific modification of genome sequences at desired sites using technologies derived from zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic ...

Genome engineering of isogenic human ES cells to model autism disorders. [PDF]
Isogenic pluripotent stem cells are critical tools for studying human neurological diseases by allowing one to study the effects of a mutation in a fixed genetic background.

The bldC developmental locus of Streptomyces coelicolor encodes a member of a family of small DNA-binding proteins related to the DNA-binding domains of the MerR family. [PDF]
The bldC locus, required for formation of aerial hyphae in Streptomyces coelicolor, was localized by map-based cloning to the overlap between cosmids D17 and D25 of a minimal ordered library. Subcloning and sequencing showed that bldC encodes a member of

RS-1 enhances CRISPR/Cas9- and TALEN-mediated knock-in efficiency
CRISPR/Cas9 and transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN) are becoming major tools for genome editing. Here, Song et al. show that RS-1, a small-molecule enhancer for homology directed repair, increases the CRISPR/Cas9 and TALEN mediated ...

TALEN-mediated editing of the mouse Y chromosome [PDF]
The functional study of Y chromosome genes has been hindered by a lack of mouse models with specific Y chromosome mutations. We used transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN)-mediated gene editing in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to ...
