Homing Endonucleases: From Microbial Genetic Invaders to Reagents for Targeted DNA Modification
Open accessAbstract
Homing endonucleases are microbial DNA-cleaving enzymes that mobilize their own reading frames by generating double strand breaks at specific genomic invasion sites. These proteins display an economy of size, and yet recognize long DNA sequences (typically 20 to 30 basepairs). They exhibit a wide range of fidelity at individual nucleotide positions, in a manner that is strongly influenced by host constraints on the coding sequence of the targeted gene. The activity of these proteins leads to site-specific recombination events that can result in the insertion, deletion, mutation or correction of DNA sequences. Over the past 15 years the crystal structures of representatives from several homing endonuclease families have been solved, and methods have been described to create variants of these enzymes that cleave novel DNA targets. Engineered homing endonucleases proteins are now being used to generate targeted genomic modifications for a variety of biotech and medical applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
