Abstract excerpt
Lentiviral vectors pseudotyped with the baculovirus envelope protein GP64 transduce primary cultures of human airway epithelia (HAE) at their apical surface. Our goal in this study was to harness a directed evolution approach to develop a novel envelope glycoprotein with increased transduction properties for HAE. Using error-prone PCR, a library of GP64 mutants was generated and used to prepare a diverse pool of...
