Methods and materials fox the cloning of DNA in, particular, for the cloning of "unclonable" DNA using genetically engineered host cells. Host cell organisms have been discovered that stabilize and inhibit rearrangement of DNA molecules capable of forming non-standard secondary and tertiary structures. Organisms are engineered to contain at least one mutation which inactivates homologous recombination and at least one mutation in a DNA repair pathway. Examples of such DNA pathways include Uv repair pathway, the SOS repair pathway the mismatch repair, pathway, the adaptive response pathway the heat shock response, pathway, the osmotic shock response pathway the repair pathway, of alkylation …

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 28, 1990 and granted July 24, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 28, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 28, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
