Claim Text:
1. A method for inserting a transgene into the genome of a human cell comprising: a) selecting, within the genome of said human cell, a retroviral insertion site (RIS) that is neither associated with cancer nor with abnormal cell proliferation; b) bringing said human cell in contact with an endonuclease capable of cleaving a target sequence of 12-45 base pairs that is located at a distance of at most 200 kb from the RIS, wherein the endonuclease comprises a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID Nos. 81, 82-85, 294, 295, 76, 77, 79-80, 25-40, 86-96, 127-150, 182-213, 235, 236, 238, 239, 241, 242, 244, 245, 250-252, 254-270, and 275-278; c) bringing said human cell contacted according to step b) in contact with a targeting construct comprising a transgene and two sequences homologous to the genomic sequence flanking the target sequence, thereby inserting said transgene into said genome, wherein said target sequence is located within a locus selected from the group consisting of the SH6 locus on human chromosome 21 at 21q21.1, the SH3 locus on human chromosome 6 at 6p25.1, the SH4 locus on human chromosome 7 at 7q31.2, the SH12 locus on human chromosome 13 at 13q34, the SH13 locus on human chromosome 3 at 3p12.2, the SH19 locus on human chromosome 22, the SH20 locus on human chromosome 12 at 12q21.2, the SH21 locus on human chromosome 3 at 3p24.1, the SH33 locus on human chromosome 6 at 6p12.2, the SH7 locus on human chromosome 2 at 2p16.1, the SH8 locus on human chromosome 5, the SH18 locus, the SH31 locus, the SH38 locus, the SH39 locus, the SH41 locus, the SH42 locus, the SH43 locus, the SH44 locus, the SH45 locus, the SH46 locus, the SH47 locus, the SH48 locus, the SH49 locus, the SH50 locus, the SH51 locus, the SH52 locus, the SH70 locus, the SH71 locus, the SH72 locus, the SH73 locus, the SH74 locus, the SH75 locus, the SH101 locus, the SH106 locus, the SH107 locus, the SH102 locus, the SH105 locus, the SH103 locus, the SH104 locus, the SH113 locus, the SH109 locus, the SH112 locus, the SH108 locus, the SH110 locus, the SH114 locus, the SH116 locus, the SH111 locus, the SH115 locus, the SH121 locus, the SH120 locus, the SH122 locus, the SH117 locus, the SH118 locus, the SH119 locus, the SH123 locus, the SH126 locus, the SH128 locus, the SH129 locus, the SH124 locus, the SH131 locus, the SH125 locus, the SH127 locus, the SH130 locus , the SH11 locus, the SH17 locus, the SH23 locus, the SH34 locus, the SH40 locus, the SH53 locus, the SH54 locus, the SH55 locus, the SH56 locus, the SH57 locus, the SH58 locus, the SH59 locus, the SH60 locus, the SH61 locus, the SH62 locus, the SH65 locus, the SH67 locus, the SH68 locus and the SH69 locus.
