ABSTRACT:
A novel HSV mini viral vector is disclosed. The vector comprises HSV and EBV genes which allow it to remain in episomal state, to have very high transfection and infection, and to tolerate up to 140 kb of foreign DNA. Techniques and genetic constructs for producing the vectors, for constructing the vectors and transfection and infection to recipient cells are disclosed.
