Les chromosomes artificiels de levure (Yeast Artificial Chromosomes ou YAC en abrégé) sont très utilisés dans les techniques de biologie moléculaire et le sont, parfois, en génétique.
- séquence télomérique + centromérique
- fragments étrangers de très grande taille (300 kb à 1Mb)
- a permis la première carte physique du génome humain
