ABSTRACT:
A novel viral expression vector is employed in the expression of exogenous genes in "non-permissive" hosts. Exogenous genes under the control of a promoter which promotes expression in "non-permissive" hosts are thus used to expand the host range of the virus thus allowing production of polypeptides, including polypeptides which are toxic to the target host.
