A Single Short Stretch of Homology Between Adenoviral Vector and Packaging Cell Line Can Give Rise to Cytopathic Effect-Inducing, Helper-Dependent E1-Positive Particles
20 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
An undesirable byproduct from recombinant adenoviral vectors is the emergence of replication competent adenovirus (RCA) that result from rare homologous recombination events between the viral E1-containing (permissive) mammalian host cell genome and the virus itself, restoring the E1 gene to the viral genome. To reduce or eliminate the problem of RCA, we evaluated production of a first generation Ad5 vector...
