Abstract
The present invention relates to the enrichment of specific target sequences. Enrichment can be achieved through the formation of a heteroduplex that includes the specific target sequence and then the specific cleavage of the heteroduplex. A binding moiety is then added to the cleaved heteroduplex, allowing for the subsequent manipulation of the specific target sequence in the heteroduplex.
