Abstract

The invention relates to a set of genetic constructs which allow the efficient and reproducible introduction of a specific nucleotide sequence at a fixed position in the genome by generating a double strand break at a specific position in the genome using a meganuclease and so stimulating a homologous recombination event at this locus between the genomic site and a transfected donor sequence. The present invention also relates to methods using these constructs and to these materials in the form of a kit.
