Journal ArticleDOI
Unexpected failure rates for modular assembly of engineered zinc fingers
Cherie L. Ramirez,Jonathan E. Foley,David A. Wright,Felix Müller-Lerch,Shamim H. Rahman,Tatjana I. Cornu,Ronnie J. Winfrey,Jeffry D. Sander,Fengli Fu,Jeffrey A. Townsend,Toni Cathomen,Daniel F. Voytas,J. Keith Joung +12 more
TL;DR: In the version of this correspondence initially published, the two previously published datasets analyzed were labeled with incorrect references in Figure 1b.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revealing off-target cleavage specificities of zinc-finger nucleases by in vitro selection
TL;DR: An energy compensation model of ZFN specificity in which excess binding energy contributes to off-target ZFN cleavage is established and strategies for the improvement of future ZFN design are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
BRD-NUT oncoproteins: a family of closely related nuclear proteins that block epithelial differentiation and maintain the growth of carcinoma cells.
Christopher A. French,Cherie L. Ramirez,J. Kolmakova,Tyler T. Hickman,Michael J. Cameron,M.E. Thyne,Jeffrey L. Kutok,Jeffrey A. Toretsky,A.K. Tadavarthy,Ursula R. Kees,Jonathan A. Fletcher,Jon C. Aster +11 more
TL;DR: Together, these data suggest that BRD–NUT fusion proteins contribute to carcinogenesis by associating with chromatin and interfering with epithelial differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Synthetic Biology Framework for Programming Eukaryotic Transcription Functions
Ahmad S. Khalil,Timothy K. Lu,Caleb J. Bashor,Cherie L. Ramirez,Nora C. Pyenson,J. Keith Joung,James J. Collins,James J. Collins +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a synthetic framework for systematically constructing eukaryotic transcription functions using artificial zinc fingers, modular DNA-binding domains found within many eUKaryotic TFs, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Situ Genetic Correction of the Sickle Cell Anemia Mutation in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Using Engineered Zinc Finger Nucleases
Vittorio Sebastiano,Morgan L. Maeder,James Angstman,Bahareh Haddad,Cyd Khayter,Dana T. Yeo,Mathew J. Goodwin,John S. Hawkins,Cherie L. Ramirez,Luis F.Z. Batista,Steven E. Artandi,Marius Wernig,J. Keith Joung +12 more
TL;DR: The generation of iPSC lines from sickle cell anemia patients and in situ correction of the disease causing mutation using three ZFN pairs made by the publicly available oligomerized pool engineering method (OPEN) provide an important proof of principle that ZFNs can be used to produce gene‐corrected human iPSCs that could be used for therapeutic applications.
