Mammalian genome writing is described as the bottom-up design, assembly, and targeted integration of large custom DNA sequences in mammalian cells. The abstract frames it as a route to engineering genomes across longer length scales than routine single-site editing.

The ability to design and engineer mammalian genomes across arbitrary length scales would enable systematic dissection of gene regulation mechanisms, analysis of complex haplotypes in human traits and disease, improved disease models, and next-generation cell therapies with sophisticated genetic circuits.
Mammalian genome writing is the bottom-up design, assembly, and targeted integration of large custom DNA sequences independent of any natural template.
Recent advances in mammalian genome writing offer a potential solution to long-scale coordinated genome engineering in mammalian cells.
Achieving multiple coordinated alterations across long sequence windows greater than 10 kb or installing large synthetic DNA segments in mammalian cells remains a major challenge.
