30
What are the advantages of RNA retroviruses?
integrate into cell's genome with minimal host immune reaction
31
What are the disadvantages of an RNA retrovirus?
- limited to 7-8kb | - infects only dividing cells, does nothing to non-dividing cells
32
Advantages of DNA viruses
- wide variety - size: 35-36kb - stable and easy to get high titers
33
Disadvantage of DNA virus
- Does not integrate into cell genome - expression is transient - malignant transformation
34
Non viral gene therapy (liposome, direct DNA) advantages:
- very large insertion size - can deliver mini chromosomes - minimal host response
35
Non viral gene therapy disadvantages:
- low efficiency | - transient expression
