?Recombining viral genomes for designing `new generation' Gene Therapy Vectors

genomics
By wags100, Section Chemistry
Posted on Thu Apr 19th, 2007 at 11:51:03 AM PST
Many different viral genomes are manipulated and exploited for there potential as gene therapy vectors. Adenoassociated virus is known for its ability to transduct non-dividing cells (ie neurons), Herpes-simplex virus (HSV-1) can carry large therapeutic genes, and Vaccinia virus is good for eliciting an innate immune response in targeting cancer cells. This experiment proposes applying recombinant techniques to generate `new generation' viral vectors integrating genes from different virus families to generate alternative vector delivery systems.
