OBJECTIVES
XJ-160 virus is a mosquito-derived Sindbis-like virus isolated in China. Based on its infectious clone (pBR-XJ-160) we have developed an RNA-based vector system. In this work, we constructed packaging cell lines (PCLs) for XJ-160 virus.
METHODS
Firstly, XJ-160 virus structural protein expression cassette pcE or pICH was constructed by cloning the gene of glycoprotein E3E26KE1 or ca...
