In genetically engineered vaccines, a vector is a bacterium or virus that transports antigen-coding genes into the body to provoke an immune response.
The vector itself does not provoke an immune response or cause disease.
A vector may also refer to an organism, especially an insect, that transmits disease-causing agents.
