Recent advances in genetically modified large-animal models of human diseases
Large-animal models show greater advantages than rodents in recapitulating human genetic diseases, primarily because of their higher similarity to humans in terms of anatomy, physiology and genetics.

Human lactoferrin efficiently targeted into caprine beta-lactoglobulin locus with transcription activator-like effector nucleases [PDF]
To create genetically modified goat as a biopharming source of recombinant human lacotoferrin (hLF) with transcription activator-like effector nucleases.TALENs and targeting vector were transferred into cultured fibroblasts to insert hLF cDNA in the goat beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) locus with homology-directed repair.

DNA Methylation Affects the Efficiency of Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases-Mediated Genome Editing in Rice [PDF]
Genome editing in plants becomes popular since the advent of sequence-specific nucleases (SSNs) that are simple to set up and efficient in various plant species. Although transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) are one of the most prevalent SSNs and have a potential to provide higher target specificity by their dimeric property, TALENs

Design, evaluation, and screening methods for efficient targeted mutagenesis with transcription activator‐like effector nucleases in medaka [PDF]
Genome editing using engineered nucleases such as transcription activator‐like effector nucleases (TALENs) has become a powerful technology for reverse genetics. In this study, we have described efficient detection methods for TALEN‐induced mutations at endogenous loci and presented guidelines of TALEN design for efficient targeted mutagenesis in ...

The Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk Variant CCR6DNP Regulates CCR6 via PARP-1. [PDF]
Understanding the implications of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for disease biology requires both identification of causal variants and definition of how these variants alter gene function.

Chapter 9 Gene Drive Strategies for Population Replacement [PDF]
Gene drive systems are selfish genetic elements capable of spreading into a population despite a fitness cost. A variety of these systems have been proposed for spreading disease-refractory genes into mosquito populations, thus reducing their ability to ...
