چکیده
A simjan virus 40 genomic fragment containing the genes coding for the large T and small t antigens was inserted into the genome of the baculovirus Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus downstream of the strong polyhedrin promoter. Infection of eucaryotic Spodoptera frugiperda (SF9) cells with this recombinant virus produced significant amounts of small t antigen and little or no large T protein. Analysis by Northern blotting and S1 nuclease digestion revealed correct and preferential utilization of the small t splicing signals.

Construction of Recombinant Bacmid DNA Encoding Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) Fusion Protein Gene
Background and Aims: Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is one of the major pathogen in poultry. Vaccination is intended to control the disease as an effective solution nevertheless this virus is a growing threat to the poultry industry. F gene open reading frame (ORF) from NDV is 1650 bp, encoding a protein of 553 amino acids that can induce protective immunity alone. The F glycoprotein on the surf...
متن کاملA novel method using baculovirus-mediated gene transfer for production of recombinant adeno-associated virus vectors.
The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrosis virus causes non-productive infection in mammalian cells. Recombinant baculovirus therefore has the capability to transfer and express heterologous genes in these cells if a mammalian promoter governs the gene of interest. We have investigated the possibility of using baculovirus as a tool to produce recombinant adeno-associated...
متن کاملExpression of the Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 Glycoprotein D in Baculovirus Expression System and Evaluation of Its Immunogenicity in Guinea Pigs
Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is highly prevalent and major cause of genital herpes in humans. The life-long nature of infection and the increasing prevalence of genital herpes imply that vaccination is the best strategy for controlling the spread of infection and limiting HSV disease. HSV glycoprotein D (gD) is one of the most important viral immunogen which has an essential ...
متن کاملConstruction of a Baculovirus vector containing A subunit of Shiga toxin for protein delivery
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Baculovirus can be used as a vector in gene delivery system. Viral envelope of baculovirus would display expressed protein/peptide and it could render as a potential vaccine delivery system. In this regard, the gene coding for A subunit of shiga toxin (StxA) from Escherichia coli (E. coli) strain was cloned in a baculovirus expression system. StxA subunit has the abili...
متن کاملConstruction a DNA Vaccine Containing Human Papillomavirus Type 16 Early Genes as a Potential Vaccine for Cervical Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Background and Objectives: Some of the human papillomaviruses (HPVs) can infect genital tracts and are sometimes associated with anogenital tract cancers. HPVs induced cervical cancers through the expression of E6 and E7 genes by inactivating the tumor suppressor proteins. In this study, E6 and E7 genes were chosen in order to construct an expression vector which is able to express ...
