Abstract

The use of defective viruses that interfere with the replication of their infectious parent after coinfecting the same cells—a therapeutic strategy known as viral interference—has recently generated a lot of interest. The CRISPR-based system that we recently reported for herpesviruses represents a novel interfering strategy that causes the conversion of wild-type viruses into new recombinant viruses and drives the native viral population to extinction.
