Abstract excerpt
The human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) variant A genome has conserved sequences which are signals for initiating lytic replication (origin, 'ori-lyt') and DNA packaging into the virion (pac2/1). Here these are functionally characterised and used to construct a gene-expression amplifiable-vector, an 'amplicon', with applications for gene delivery to lymphoid-myeloid cells or their progenitor stem cells. A minimal...
