Infographic: The Cre-lox System Explained
Dec 4, 2023 · C re-loxP recombination allows scientists to excise, insert, or invert specific DNA segments with unprecedented accuracy. 1,2 This works through two key components: a Cre recombinase and loxP sequence recognition sites. The Cre enzyme identifies pairs of loxP sites (arrowheads), which flank (flox) the DNA, and catalyzes reciprocal DNA recombination …
