Non-viral episomal vectors are regarded as attractive alternatives to currently used virus-based vectors in gene therapy. In addition, they represent a minimal model system to study the epigenetic control of basic nuclear processes, such as transcription, replication and nuclear retention. 2, record 1, English, - nonviral%20episomal%20vector

Se rapporte aux épisomes, ces éléments de l’appareil génétique de la bactérie qui peuvent se séparer relativement facilement du chromosome pour émigrer dans le cytoplasme. Les prophages et les facteurs transmissibles de la résistance aux antibiotiques (R.T.F. = resistance transmissible factors) sont les plus connus des épisomes. 2, record 2, French, - %C3%A9pisomique
