Abstract excerpt
Retroviral vectors provide the means for gene transfer with long-term expression. The lentivirus subgroup of retroviruses, such as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and type 2 (HIV-2), possesses a number of regulatory and accessory genes and other special elements. These features can be exploited to design vectors for transducing non-dividing as well as dividing cells with the potential for regulated...
