Artificial Restriction DNA Cutters as New Tools for Gene Manipulation

The final cut. Two types of artificial tools (artificial restriction DNA cutter and zinc finger nuclease) that cut double‐stranded DNA through hydrolysis of target phosphodiester linkages, have been recently developed. The chemical structures, preparation, properties, and typical applications of these two man‐made tools are reviewed.
