Novel Gene Delivery Method
Researchers at Purdue University have developed a new technology that supports the replication of bovine adenoviral vector with full E1 region deleted. This allows foreign gene cassette capacity in the bovine adenoviral vector to be extended by 2kb. Such deletion would allow for a much greater insert capacity of the foreign gene cassette containing one or more genes. This new technology could potentially open the door for many new technologies pertaining to adenoviral vector mediated gene delivery and vaccine production.
