In contrast to oncoviruses, lentiviruses do not require target cell division for integration into the host genome. Lentiviral vectors can therefore expand the spectrum of target cells susceptible to retroviral gene transfer. To analyze whether vectors based on simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) could be used for gene transfer, a three-plasmid vector-packaging system was developed, in which Gag-Pol and the vector itself are of SIV origin, while Env is derived either from SIV, amphotropic murine leukemia virus (MuLV), or the G glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G), To increase the safety of the SIV vector system, a self-inactivating SIV vector was constructed. After optimization of the SIV gag-pol expression plasmid, a minimal SIV vector, which contained only SIV sequences present on the multiply spliced nef transcript, could still be produced at titers of 2 x 10(5) infectious units/ml. Growth-arrested cells could be transduced with this vector even if vif, vpr, vpx, and nef had been deleted from the packaging construct and the vector.
