Abstract

A method for identifying target cells and tissues which internalize known or putative ligands is provided. A ligand displaying genetic package that carries a reporter or selectable marker and presents a ligand on its surface is utilized to screen a variety of cells and tissue types for the ability to be successfully transduced by the ligand displaying genetic package.
