Abstract
Provided herein are methods of producing a genetically modified cell by introducing a polydnavirus delivery construct to a target cell. The polydnavirus delivery construct can comprise an exogenous nucleic acid to form a genetically modified cell comprising the exogenous nucleic acid. Also provided are polydnavirus delivery constructs comprising an exogenous nucleic acid, as well as polydnavirus virions and genetically modified cells comprising the same. Further provided are in vitro methods of identifying a transformed cell. The methods comprise introducing a vector comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a glc polypeptide to an adherent cell and cultivating the cell under conditions that allow for the expression of the glc polypeptide. Expression of the glc polypeptide results in a transformed cell that is identified by a loss of adherency.
