Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine have introduced a groundbreaking method for producing human artificial chromosomes (HACs), offering immense potential for gene therapy and biotechnology.

Published in Science, their study presents an innovative approach to efficiently create single-copy HACs, overcoming longstanding obstacles in the field.

Led by Dr. Ben Black, the team redesigned HAC design and delivery, utilizing yeast cells to assemble a large DNA construct and then fusing them with human cells.

This method yielded high-efficiency formation of HACs, which replicated and segregated properly during cell division, Study Finds reported.
