An efficient low cost method for gene transfer to T lymphocytes.

<h4>Unlabelled</h4>Gene transfer to T lymphocytes has historically relied on retro and lentivirus, but recently transposon-based gene transfer is rising as a simpler and straight forward approach to achieve stable transgene expression. Transfer of expression cassettes to T lymphocytes re...
