Abstract excerpt
To improve the effectiveness of herpes simplex virus (HSV) thymidine kinase/ganciclovir (HSV-tk/GCV) suicide gene therapy, the replication-defective HSV vector TOIkappaB expressing both HSV-TK and a mutant form of the NF-kappaB inhibitor IkappaBalpha (IkappaBalphaM) was developed. TOIkappaB was constructed by recombining the IkappaBalphaM gene into the U(L)41 locus of a replication-defective lacZ expression...
