Abstract
Viruses and viral vectors have played a crucial role in our understanding of the pathways of homologous and non-homologous recombination in mitotically dividing mammalian cells. In particular, they have allowed the confirmation of the preponderance of non-homologous over homologous recombination events and led to schemes for the selection and isolation of homologous recombination products. These studies have allowed an examination of the properties of reciprocal and non-reciprocal homologous recombination events extrachromosomally, in the chromosome and between plasmids and chromosomes. They suggest that it is feasible now to direct DNA segments to predetermined chromosomal locations by homologous recombination.
