Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method of modifying a target sequence in the genome of a mammalian or avian oocyte by homologous recombination with a donor nucleic acid sequence, the method comprising the steps (a) introducing into the oocyte a zinc finger nuclease or a nucleic acid molecule encoding the zinc finger nuclease in expressible form, wherein the zinc finger nuclease specifically binds within the target sequence and introduces a double strand break within the target sequence; and (b) introducing a nucleic acid molecule into the oocyte, wherein the nucleic acid molecule comprises the donor nucleic acid sequence and regions homologous to the target sequence. The present invention further relates to a method of producing a non-human mammal or an avian carrying a modified target sequence in its genome.
