additional information | construction of a fusion gene using cytosine deaminase in combination with uracil phosphoribosyl transferase, the product of the suicide gene, CDUPRT, converts the prodrug, 5-fluorocytosine, into 5-fluorouracil and other cytotoxic metabolites that kill both CDUPRT-expressing and surrounding cells, via a bystander effect, in pseudo-metastates in mouse tissues, tissue-specifix effects, overview | Escherichia coli |
