Abstract

Abstract A gene sequence that encodes the human CCAAT/enhancer binding protein ("C/EBP"), and recombinant vectors that are capable of mediating the expression of the C/EBP gene are described. The gene sequence and vector can be used in methods of gene therapy to treat cancer and other diseases.
