Abstract: The fulllength HSV1-tk gene was inserted into retrovirus vector pN2Aby DNA recombinant techniques. The plasmid pN2A-HSV1-tk was transfected into ψ2, PA317 packaging cell line by DNA-calcium phosphate coprecipitation. The G418 resistant clones were selected and their medium could infect NIH3T3 successfully and their average titer was 6.2×105CFU/mL. The highest one reached 1.5×106CFU/mL. The producer cell line will be used in gene therapy.

Key words: HSV1-tk gene, retrovirus vector, gene transfer
