Reconstruction of the 2.4 Mb human DMD-gene by homologous YAC recombination.
The human dystrophin gene, mutations of which cause Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy, measures 2.4 Mb. This size seriously limits its cloning as a single DNA fragment and subsequent in-vitro expression studies. We have used stepwise in-vivo recombination between overlapping yeast artificial ch...
