High spontaneous integration rates of end-modified linear DNAs upon mammalian cell transfection

Abstract In gene therapy, potential integration of therapeutic transgene into host cell genomes is a serious risk that can lead to insertional mutagenesis and tumorigenesis. Viral vectors are often used as the gene delivery vehicle, but they are prone to undergoing integration events. More recently,...
