Compounds and methods for site directed mutations in eukaryotic cells

摘要

The present invention concerns a polynucleotide having both ribonucleotides and deoxyribonucleotides in a first strand and solely deoxyribonucleotides in a second strand; wherein the strands are Watson-Crick paired and are linked by an oligonucleotide so that the polynucleotide has at most a single 3' and a single 5' end. These ends can be ligated so that the polynucleotide is a single continuous circular polymer. The polynucleotide can be used to induce specific alterations in targeted genes.
