Comparison between retroviral vector and lentiviral vector (RV/LV) gene delivery systems with CRISPR-Cas gene editing for production of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells. (A) Scheme of T cell transduction with RV/LV (left) and cell transfection with ribonucleoprotein (RNP, Right). (B) Schematic representation of genetic structures. Upper structure: Displays an integrated prototypic LV gene transfer vector encoding a CAR, not to scale. LTR: Long terminal repeats; HIV: Human immune deficient virus U5: Untranslated region in the 5’ side; Ψ: encapsidation signal; RRE, Rev responsive element; cPPT, polypurine tract; EF1α, Elongation factor 1 α. Lower structure: Represents a prototypic integrated CAR generated by gene editing. TRAC, Locus of T cell receptor alpha chain; HDR, Homology-directed recombination.
