Does rAAV have a potential risk to integrate a piece of DNA into host genome?

Is it true, statements below? 1. Instead, the rAAV genome is typically processed into a double-stranded circular episome through double stranded synthesis. These episomes can concatemerize,...

Why will artificial plasmids inside cells lose over time/generation?

I think it's because of internal reasons (e.g. temperature-sensitive ori) in plasmid itself and natural reasons (consume lots of resources in cells and probably digested by protease). In terms of...
