PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF A VECTOR CONTAINING A SEQUENCE OF H. SAIMIRI NUCLEOTIDES AND THE HTLV X REGION, TRANSFORMATION OF CELLS WITH THAT VECTOR AND PREPARATION OF PROTEINS BY EXPRESSION IN THESE CELLS

摘要

An H. saimiri-HTLV-1 or 2 X region vector is disclosed. This vector can be used to establish continuous cell lines of difficult to grow cells, such as human T-cells. It can also be used to obtain certain cell products and in methods for screening new compounds.
