A virus budding from a host cell membrane. This sequence of steps forms ... Some viruses need an intermediate organism, called a vector, to be transmitted from one type of host to another.

The vector is then introduced into a packaging ... voltage pulses of electricity that produce transient holes in the cell membrane, through which the DNA can enter. Electroporation is a harsh ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

The idea was to co-opt a virus’ natural ability to target cells, transverse the membrane ... receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for a B-cell malignancy 1. Current lentiviral vector systems (the ...
