METHOD FOR MODIFYING GENOME SEQUENCE TO INTRODUCE SPECIFIC MUTATION TO TARGETED DNA SEQUENCE BY BASE-REMOVAL REACTION, AND MOLECULAR COMPLEX USED THEREIN

摘要

The present invention provides a method of modifying a targeted site of a double stranded DNA, including a step of contacting a complex wherein a nucleic acid sequence-recognizing module that specifically binds to a target nucleotide sequence in a selected double stranded DNA and DNA glycosylase with sufficiently low reactivity with a DNA having an unrelaxed double helix structure (unrelaxed DNA) are bonded, with the double stranded DNA, to convert one or more nucleotides in the targeted site to other one or more nucleotides or delete one or more nucleotides, or insert one or more nucleotides into the targeted site, without cleaving at least one strand of the double stranded DNA in the targeted site.
