#A protein capsid and/or envelope that encapsidates the genetic payload. This determines the target tissue or antigen recognition. | #A [[Capsid|protein capsid]] and/or [[Viral envelope|envelope]] that encapsidates the genetic payload.

#The "regulatory cassette" that allows for the expression of the trangene either as a chromosomal integrant or an episome. It comprises enhancer, promoter, and auxiliary elements. | #The "regulatory cassette" that allows for the expression of the trangene either as a chromosomal integrant or an episome.
