Depositor Comments

Mammalian expression vector for I-SceI-Trex2 fusion protein to generate site-specific non-cohesive chromosomal breaks. I-SceI generates a double strand break within its 18 base pair recognition site, leaving 4 nucleotide ssDNA overhangs. Trex2 is a non-processive 3' exonuclease that can degrade the I-SceI 3' overhang. Subsequent end joining repair causes efficient loss of chromosomal I-SceI sites.
