We therefore propose to undertake the identification, assembly and test of the structural elements necessary for the proper function and stability of a mammalian artificial chromosome(MAC). To achieve this goal, we will create a chimaera between an existing Yeast Artificial Chromosome(YAC) and selected human and other mammalian genomic sequences. The stability and autonomous replication of the MAC in human cells will be evaluated by a variety of assays, both before and after the addition of candidate origins, telomeres and centromeres. 2, record 1, English, - mammalian%20artificial%20chromosome

C'est ainsi qu'est né le concept de minichromosomes ou MAC (mammalian artificial chromosomes). Ceux-ci pourraient maintenir de grands morceaux d'ADN parallèlement aux chromosomes de la cellule sans risque d'intégration ou de recombinaison avec des virus et sans induire de réponse immunitaire. 3, record 1, French, - chromosome%20mammif%C3%A8re%20artificiel
