MEGANUCLEASE VARIANTS CLEAVING A DNA TARGET SEQUENCE FROM A XERODERMA PIGMENTOSUM GENE AND USES THEREOF

摘要

An I-CreI variant which has at least two substitutions, one in each of the two functional subdomains of the LAGLIDADG core domain situated from positions 26 to 40 and 44 to 77 of I-CreI, said variant being able to cleave a DNA target sequence from a xeroderma pigmentosum gene.
