adenovirus
information and resources from the National Cancer Institute
NCI Thesaurus | adenovirus
One of a number of genetically-engineered adenoviruses designed to insert a gene of interest into a eukaryotic cell where the gene of interest is subsequently expressed. Unlike most other vectors, adenovirus vectors have the ability to infect post-mitotic cells. Thus, these agents are especially useful for gene transfer into neuronal cells. NCI Thesaurus | adenovirus
