Recently, Hu Zhihong, Wang Manli, Luo Minhua and Zeng Wenbo from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, jointly published a research paper entitled “Efficient Strategy for Synthesizing Vector Free and Oncolytic Herpes Simplex Type 1 Viruses” on the international academic journal ACS Synthetic Biology. This research carried out the construction and optimization of an artificial synthesis platform based on type I herpes simplex virus type F, and used this platform to transform oncolytic viruses. Type I herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) has important application prospects as an oncolytic virus in cancer treatment. In this study, the research team developed a new method for efficient synthesis and rescue of HSV-1 virus. Unlike traditional methods of synthesizing complete genomes containing vector sequences in vitro and transfecting them into mammalian cells to rescue viruses, the research team synthesized HSV-1 genome fragments containing homologous arms through transformation related homologous recombination (TAR) in ...
