Abstract
The present invention provides a retroviral vector containing an iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene but without selective marker gene, constructed on, as a backbone, a minimum sized MLV-based retroviral vector which does not contain any viral coding sequences but can still produce a high viral titer and drive a high level of gene expression.
Claims6
A retroviral vector comprising an iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene and the backbone of a minimum sized MLV-based retroviral vector lacking any viral coding sequence, the retroviral vector containing no selective marker gene.
