Perspectives

This study shows that gamma retroviral integration is more selective than previously imagined. This helps explain the high oncogenic potency of these viruses in nature and the problem of vector-induced leukemias in human gene therapy trials. It also offers a novel approach to identify driver genes in human cancer cells.
