Abstract excerpt
The ability to deliver large transgenes to a single genomic sequence with high efficiency would accelerate biomedical interventions. Current methods suffer from low insertion efficiency and most rely on undesired double-strand DNA breaks. Serine integrases catalyze the insertion of large DNA cargos at attachment (att) sites. By targeting att sites to the genome using technologies such as prime editing, integrases...
