The genetic modifications of common oncolytic adenovirus vectors. (A) The genetic scheme of wild type serotype 5 adenovirus. (B) ONYX-015, the E1b-55k (2496-3323) region that is capable of replication in p53-deficient human tumor cells was deleted. (C) H101, deleting the entire E1B gene and a 78.3–85.8 nm gene segment in the E3 region, which is responsible for the code of the adenovirus death protein. (D) Ad5-Δ24RGD carries a 24-bp (919–943) deletion in the E1A region that is responsible for binding Rb protein and RGD motif insertion into the fiber. (E) ZD55 deleted the E1B 55-kD gene and armed with foreign gene. (F) ICOVIR5, the oncolytic adenovirus in which the endogenous E1A promoter has been replaced by the human E2F-1 promoter insulated with the DM-1. (G) Gendicine is a recombinant human serotype 5 adenovirus in which the E1 region is replaced by a human wild-type p53 expression cassette. Gendicine is a recombinant human serotype 5 adenovirus in which the E1 region is replaced by a human wild-type p53 expression cassette. The p53 gene is driven by a Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter with a bovine growth hormone (BGH) poly(A) tail.
