Replication-incompetent influenza-based vectors carrying no DNA intermediate deliver coding messages and functional small RNAs together to primary human and mouse cells and to mouse lung, with output and cytotoxicity tuned by microRNA target sites in the nucleoprotein segment.

The inefficient 5 prime splice site of influenza A virus segment 8 functions as a timing device, causing the nuclear export protein to accumulate slowly as a minor product of abundant NS1 transcription, with both raising and lowering that rate attenuating the virus through mistimed ribonucleoprotein export.
