<p>The present invention provides an HSV having a genome from which, in the presence of the ICP4 gene product, a native immediate early gene is expressed with delayed kinetics, and an HSV having a genome with a mutation in each of the genes encoding ICP4, ICP27, and another HSV gene; preferably such HSV have one or more exogenous genes. The present invention further provides a method of expressing a polynucleotide within a cell comprising infecting the cell with such an HSV. Furthermore, the present invention provides a cell line having DNA encoding the HSV proteins ICP4, ICP27, and ICP0, and a method of producing an HSV vector by employing such a cell line.</p> |
