A Novel Minimal-Size Vector (MIDGE) Improves Transgene Expression in Colon Carcinoma Cells and Avoids Transfection of Undesired DNA
1 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Viral and plasmid vectors may cause unwanted immunological side effects resulting from the expression of nontherapeutic genes contained in their sequence. Furthermore, replication-defective viral vectors carry the potential risk of recombination with wild-type viruses or activation of oncogenes. A new vector type for minimalistic, immunologically defined gene expression (MIDGE) may overcome these problems. MIDGE...
