ABSTRACT:
A tissue-specific, suitably liver specific vector for gene therapy of a diseased host, wherein a therapeutic gene is coupled to a promoter chemically, enzymatically, or over an antibody, packaged in a polypeptide coat, and coupled to a component of a preselected virus of the tissue to be treated, and when the tissue is liver tissue, then the virus is hepatitis B virus.
