Abstract

A method is described for preparing primate bone marrow cells containing a DNA sequence of interest the method being first the isolation of bone marrow cells from a primate and then co-culturing the bone marrow cells with retrovirus producer cells. The retrovirus contains the DNA sequence of interest and infects the bone marrow cells during co-culture. To obtain bone marrow cells that contain the DNA sequence of interest, non-adherent bone marrow cells and adherent cells are harvested.
