Abstract

The invention relates to a defective recombinant retrovirus containing a sequence coding for a specific protein in the genome of the cells. The DNA of the recombinant retrovirus contains the sequence coding for the protein intercalated between an acceptor splicing site and a donor splicing site, the whole assembly being placed under the control of a suitable promoter under conditions such that the infection of the said cells by this recombinant retrovirus is accompanied by the incorporation of the sequence coding for the protein into the genome of the infected cells.
