More Information
Summary:A chimeric adenoviral vector is provided that comprises nucleotide sequence of a first adenovirus, wherein at least one gene of said first adenovirus encoding a protein that facilitates binding of said vector to a target mammalian cell, or internalization thereof within said cell, is replaced by the corresponding gene from a second adenovirus belonging to subgroup D, said vector further comprising a transgene operably linked to a eucaryotic promoter to allow for expression therefrom in a mammalian cell. Additionally, a method of delivering transgenes to target mammalian cells, particularly airway epithelial cells, is provided.
