title: Recombinogenic targeting: a new approach to genomic analysis--a review.
abstract: Currently, recombinational cloning procedures based upon methods developed for yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are being exploited for targeted cloning and in-vivo modification of genomic clones. In this review, we will discuss the development of large-insert vectors, homologous recombination-based techniques for cloning and modification, and their application towards functional analysis of genes using transgenic mouse model systems.
