Utility of I-SceI and CCR5-ZFN nucleases in excising selectable marker genes from transgenic plants

Abstract Objectives Removal of selection marker genes from transgenic plants is highly desirable for their regulatory approval and public acceptance. This study evaluated the use of two nucleases, the yeast homing endonuclease, I-SceI, and the designed zinc finger nuclease, CCR5-ZFN, in excising mar...
