Summary Introduction

To explain: The way through which a highly infectious strain of the virus that targets and destroys neurons might be changed so that it could deliver a gene to correct cystic fibrosis in lung tissue.

Introduction: Viruses are intracellular obligate parasites that require a host cell to proliferate. They take over the machinery of the host cell that it infects and reproduces within the host cell. They possess either DNA or RNA genome, which is surrounded by the protein capsid.
