Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vectors in Gene Therapy edited by Kenneth I. Berns, Catherine Giraud.

Human gene therapy holds great promise for the cure of many genetic diseases. In order to achieve such a cure there are two requirements. First, the affected gene must be cloned, its se­ quence determined and its regulation adequately characterized. Second, a suitable vector for the delivery of a go...
