ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to conditionally replicating viruses or pairs of viruses containing a gene switch that is activatable by transient heat or other proteotoxic stress in the presence or absence of a small molecule regulator. The gene switch controls the expression of a gene for a protein required for efficient viral replication and may also control the activity of a passenger gene.
