Abstract

Non-replicable viral recombinant vectors which are recognizable by muscle cell receptors, and furthermore modified by an inserted nucleic acid coding for a polypeptide sequence to be expressed in the muscle cells, are used to obtain a composition for treating muscle cell diseases or disease which, by virtue of their location in the body are accessible to the production of expression. A method for producing said vectors and their use in pharmaceutical compositions are also described.
