TCR(alpha)-LCR-DERIVED GENE REGULATORY CASSETTES

A method of delivering a transgene to a cell is provided. The method uses a vector that contains a T-cell receptor alpha locus control region (TCRαLCR) derived gene regulatory cassette having fewer than 5.0-kb. The method delivers the transgene with spatiotemporally specific gene expression and sile...

Zusammenfassung:A method of delivering a transgene to a cell is provided. The method uses a vector that contains a T-cell receptor alpha locus control region (TCRαLCR) derived gene regulatory cassette having fewer than 5.0-kb. The method delivers the transgene with spatiotemporally specific gene expression and silencing-prevention controls to a cell such that a predetermined subset of progeny cell-types express a gene product from the transgene. Other progeny of the cell diminish, or silence, the expression of the gene product.
