The following vectors were constructed by Drs. Yi Chu, Ph.D., Donald Heistad, M.D., and Beverly L. Davidson, Ph.D. Please contact either Dr. Chu (yi-chu@uiowa.edu) or Dr. Heistad (donald-heistad@uiowa.edu) for permission to obtain them from the Vector Core. In your email, please state briefly the intended use of the virus. Our goal is to minimize duplication of ongoing studies with the same virus.

Please site one or two of the references below to the original construction of the vectors.
