High-Efficiency FLP and ΦC31 Site-Specific Recombination in Mammalian Cells

DNA site-specific recombinases (SSRs) such as Cre, FLPe, and φC31, are powerful tools for analyzing gene function in vertebrates. While the availability of multiple high-efficiency SSRs would facilitate a wide array of genomic engineering possibilities, efficient recombination in mammalian cells has...

description DNA site-specific recombinases (SSRs) such as Cre, FLPe, and φC31, are powerful tools for analyzing gene function in vertebrates. While the availability of multiple high-efficiency SSRs would facilitate a wide array of genomic engineering possibilities, efficient recombination in mammalian cells has only been observed with Cre recombinase. Here we report the de novo synthesis of mouse codon-optimized FLP (FLPo) and ΦC31 (ΦC31o) SSRs, which result in recombination efficiencies similar to Cre.
