Abstract

Adenovirus vectors have shown seductive promise as molecular biology tools and are being proposed for a number of clinical gene delivery applications. We will review the properties of adenovirus vectors that are responsible for the great interest in their use. We will discuss a number of the limitations of the current vectors and describe some of the strategies that are being used to improve these vectors.
