Gene replacement with one-sided homologous recombination.

Abstract:

:Homologous recombination is now routinely used in mammalian cells to replace endogenous chromosomal sequences with transferred DNA. Vectors for this purpose are traditionally constructed so that the replacement segment is flanked on both sides by DNA sequences which are identical to sequences in the chromosomal target gene. To test the importance of bilateral regions of homology, we measured recombination between transferred and chromosomal immunoglobulin genes when the transferred segment was homologous to the chromosomal gene only on the 3' side. In each of the four recombinants analyzed, the 5' junction was unique, suggesting that it was formed by nonhomologous, i.e., random or illegitimate, recombination. In two of the recombinants, the 3' junction was apparently formed by homologous recombination, while in the other two recombinants, the 3' junction as well as the 5' junction might have involved a nonhomologous crossover. As reported previously, we found that the frequency of gene targeting increases monotonically with the length of the region of homology. Our results also indicate that targeting with fragments bearing one-sided homology can be as efficient as with fragments with bilateral homology, provided that the overall length of homology is comparable. The frequency of these events suggests that the immunoglobulin locus is particularly susceptible to nonhomologous recombination. Vectors designed for one-sided homologous recombination might be advantageous for some applications in genetic engineering.
