Abstract excerpt
We have cloned the entire human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) genome into the pBR322 plasmid in two segments: the BamHI-A fragment (21 kb) and the BamHI-B fragment (15 kb). We have also generated a series of clones with smaller Ad5 DNA inserts, all containing the left-end of the viral genome. One such clone, pXCl, containing the left 16% of the Ad5 DNA molecule, has been shown to transform rodent cells by DNA...
