## Abstract Transcriptional silencing of retroviruses poses a major obstacle to their use as gene therapy vectors. Silencing is most pronounced in stem cells which are desirable targets for therapeutic gene delivery. Many vector designs combat silencing through __cis__βmodifications of retroviral v
We constructed tricistronic expression vectors for the simultaneous and coordinated expression of three independent genes in mammalian cells. One single promoter allows high level and, in some vectors, adjustable transcription of all three cistrons. Whereas the first cistron is translated in a cap-d
The most recent developments in mammalian cell inducible expression systems have involved the use of bacterial gene control elements and viral transactivator proteins. The combination of hybrid viral transactivator and bacterial repressor proteins, and simple chemical inducers can provide induction
