Abstract Chromosomal rearrangements, such as translocations, deletions, and inversions, underlie numerous genetic diseases and cancers, yet precise engineering of these rearrangements remains challenging. Here, we present a CRISPR-based homologous recombination-mediated rearrangement (HRMR) strategy that leverages homologous donor templates to align and repair broken chromosome ends. HRMR improves efficiency by approximately 80-fold compared to non-homologous end joining, achieving over 95% homologous recombination. Validated across multiple loci and cell lines, HRMR enables efficient and accurate chromosomal rearrangements. Live-cell imaging reveals that homologous donors mediate chromosome end proximity, enhancing rearrangement efficiency. Thus, HRMR provides a powerful tool for disease modeling, chromosomal biology, and therapeutic applications.
