Among other things, provided herein are systems that replace the natural random integration activity of a retrovirus with site-specific integration machinery. This approach allows for a more precise targeting of a gene of interest into a human genome, e.g., for therapeutic purposes. The system may include integration-deficient retrovirus (e.g., lentivirus) (IDLV), in which the natural integration activity has been reduced (e.g., by mutation to the viral integrase polypeptide). Instead, the system may comprise a site-specific recombinase (e.g., a serine recombinase, e.g., a serine integrase) capable of directing insertion of a template DNA, or portion thereof, into a desired site in the human genome.
