Abstract
The invention relates to the field of molecular biology and recombinant nucleic acid technology. In particular, the invention relates to a rationally-designed, non-naturally-occurring meganuclease with altered DNA recognition sequence specificity which recognizes and cleaves a unique DNA site in the maize genome. Disclosed herein are meganucleases which are variants of the I-CreI and LIG-34meganucleases. The invention also relates to methods of producing engineered maize plants using such meganucleases.
