Abstract

Gene targeting, i.e., the disruption of a specific gene via homologous recombination, is one of the key techniques to study gene function. However, researchers have faced the difficulty that, in human cells, the frequency of correct targeted integration is quite low compared to non-targeted (or random) integration. Adachi and colleagues investigated the factors that influence the ratio of targeted integration to non-targeted integration.
