ABSTRACT:
A retroviral vector particle having a modified retroviral envelope polypeptide. The retroviral envelope polypeptide includes the hypervariable polyproline region, or hinge region, and the hypervariable polyproline region, or hinge region is modified to include a targeting polypeptide including a binding region which binds to a ligand. Such a retroviral vector may be "targeted" to various cells for delivery of genetic material to such cells.
