Abstract excerpt
This report describes a novel method for complementation studies of defective herpes simplex virus (HSV) genes. Viral test gene and nonviral reporter gene cassettes were rapidly integrated into the HSV genome in a site-specific and reversible manner by using the P1 phage-based Cre-lox recombination system. Shuttle plasmids contained a functional loxP recombination site, an expressible form of the bacterial lacZ...
