Targeting of cholera toxin A (ctxA) gene by zinc finger nuclease: pitfalls of using gene editing tools in prokaryotes

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The study was launched to use zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) technology to disrupt the cholera toxin gene (ctxA) for inhibiting CT toxin production in Vibrio cholera (V. cholera). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: An engineered ZFN was designed to target the catalytic site of the ctxA gene....
