Specific TT virus sequences and chimeric TT virus host cell DNA molecules for use in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancer and autoimmunity

摘要

Described are single-stranded new sequences of TT viruses, rearranged TTV sequences and hybrid molecules of a specific TT virus sequence and host cell DNA that are capable of replicating autonomously for use in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases like cancer and autoimmunity. In addition, it relates to the use of such molecules as gene vectors and artificial chromosomes.
