Improving viral vector safety for gene therapies

Drug Discovery World

With these therapies, genes can be delivered into cells to replace defective alleles or produce new functional proteins to treat or cure disease. Integrating vectors such as lentivirus stably insert their payload into the host cell genome, which is advantageous for long-term treatment. The enriched DNA is then sequenced.
