Poxvirus vectors: cytoplasmic expression of transferred genes
1National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20292.
Abstract:
During the past year there have been a number of advances in poxvirus vector design and application. These include improvements in gene expression and a direct method of inserting DNA into the poxvirus genome. Alternative methods of selecting recombinant viruses have been developed, and attenuated and non-replicating vaccinia virus and avian poxvirus vectors are now being used successfully. Field trials of an oral, wild-life rabies vaccine, and phase 1 testing of human vaccines derived from vaccinia virus are in progress. This review is an updated and modified version of a review first published in Current Opinion in Biotechnology 1992, 3:533-539.
