Abstract

The one-step gene disruption techniques described here are versatile in that a disruption can be made simply by the appropriate cloning experiment. The resultant chromosomal insertion is nonreverting and contains a genetically linked marker. Detailed knowledge of the restriction map of a fragment is not necessary. It is even possible to “probe” a fragment that is unmapped for genetic functions by constructing a series of insertions and testing each one for its phenotype.

      Historically, different methods have been devised to alter the genome of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells in experimental setups. These include restriction enzymes [1–3], spontaneous homologous recombination [4], Cre-lox system [5], and meganucleases [6]. The introduction of specifically designed Zinc Finger Nucleases (ZFN) and Transcription Activator-like Effector protein Nucleases (TALEN) that can recognize any DNA sequence of about 18–21 base pairs in length with the help of DNA recognizing proteins opened the doors for the therapeutic use of genome editing tools [7,8].
