Targeted Genome Editing Using Site-Specific Nucleases ZFNs, TALENs, and the CRISPR/Cas9 System

This book serves as an introduction to targeted genome editing, beginning with the background of this rapidly developing field and methods for generation of engineered nucleases. Applications of genome editing tools are then described in detail, in iPS cells and diverse organisms such as mice, rats,...
