Abstract excerpt
X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (X-CGD) results from mutations in the gene encoding gp91phox, the larger subunit of the respiratory burst oxidase cytochrome b. In this study, a recombinant retrovirus vector was constructed and evaluated for its expression of human gp91phox in a human X-CGD myeloid cell line in which the endogenous gp91phox gene had been disrupted by gene targeting. The retrovirus...
