3.
Recombinant adeno virus can be created by deleting E1A/E 1B genes that are
transcriptional regulators and are essential for viral replication
not necessary for viral replication
coding for virus coat protein
important for packaging of viral DNA into viral head

4.
Retroviruses have advantage for being used as vector for animal cells because
they cover a wide host range
infection does not lead to cell death, infected cells produce virus over an indefinite period
viral gene expression is driven by strong promoters
all of the above
