Expression of Two Foreign Genes by a Newcastle Disease Virus Vector From the Optimal Insertion Sites through a Combination of the ITU and IRES-Dependent Expression Approaches

Abstract excerpt

Many Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strains have been developed as vectors to express a foreign gene (FG) for vaccine and cancer therapy purposes. The non-coding region between the P and M genes and the non-coding region behind the NP gene open reading frame in the NDV genome have been identified as the optimal insertion sites for efficient FG expression through the independent transcription unit (ITU) and the...
