Homologous Recombination Offers Advantages over Transposition-Based Systems to Generate Recombinant Baculovirus for Adeno-Associated Viral Vector Production.

Viral vectors have a great potential for gene delivery, but manufacturing is a big challenge for the industry. The baculovirus-insect cell is one of the most scalable platforms to produce recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors. The standard procedure to generate recombinant baculovirus is based on Tn7 transposition which is time-consuming and suffers technical constraints.
