What is the main advantage of using Yeast Artificial Chromosome based vector over other vectors?

1. It has ability to clone very large fragments of DNA.

2. YAC vectors do not contain origin of replication sites 

3. It has insert  range up to 2000 kb.

4. It help in genome mapping and sequencing projects.
