LAGLIDADG HOMING ENDONUCLEASE VARIANTS HAVING MUTATIONS IN TWO FUNCTIONAL SUBDOMAINS AND USE THEREOF.

摘要

A LAGLIDADG homing endonuclease variant, having mutations in two separate subdomains, each binding a distinct part of a modified DNA target half-site, said LAGLIDADG homing endonuclease variant being able to cleave a chimeric DNA target sequence comprising the nucleotides bound by each subdomain. Use of said herodimeric meganuclease and derived products for genetic engineering, genome therapy and antiviral therapy.
