Abstract
A specific locus in the genome of a murine host cell is identified which causes high levels of recombinant gene expression following stable integration, via homologous recombination, of the recombinant gene into the specific chromosomal locus. The selection of a favorable genome locus for the insertion and expression of a recombinant gene is disclosed, as are DNA vectors and host cells.
