title: Insertion of DNA sequences into the human chromosomal beta-globin locus by homologous recombination.
abstract: A 'rescuable' plasmid containing globin gene sequences allowing recombination with homologous chromosomal sequences has enabled us to produce, score and clone mammalian cells with the plasmid integrated into the human beta-globin locus. The planned modification was achieved in about one per thousand transformed cells whether or not the target gene was expressed.
