Abstract
The current invention relates to a method for targeted alteration of acceptor DNA, for example duplex acceptor DNA. The method comprises use of at least two oligonucleotides, each oligonucleotide having at least one mismatch relative to the targeted (duplex) acceptor DNA. The mismatch of the first oligonucleotide is directed to a nucleotide at a position in the first strand of the duplex and the mismatch of the second oligonucleotide is directed to the nucleotide in the second strand that occupies the complementary position in the duplex acceptor DNA (e.g. forms a base-pair with the nucleotide in the first strand). These mismatches are located at specific positions within said oligonucleotides. Also provided is a kit that comprises instructions for performing the method according to the inventions, and in a preferred embodiment, comprises oligonucleotides suitable for use in the method.
