| 20080206872 | Nucleic acid integration in eukaryotes - The invention relates to methods for directing integration of a nucleic acid of interest towards homologous recombination and uses thereof. The present invention discloses factors involved in integration of a nucleic acid by illegitimate recombination which provides a method of directing integration of a nucleic acid of interest to a predetermined site, whereby the nucleic acid has a homology at or around the predetermined site, in a eukaryote with a preference for non-homologous recombination comprising steering an integration pathway towards homologous recombination. Furthermore, the invention provides a method of directing integration of a nucleic acid of interest to a subtelomeric and/or telomeric region in a eukaryote with a preference for non-homologous recombination. | 08-28-2008 |
