Preferred Label : Adenovirus Vector;
NCIt synonyms : Adenoviral Vector;
NCIt definition : 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.
