Alteration of amino acids in VP2 of very virulent infectious bursal disease virus results in tissue culture adaptation and attenuation in chickens
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Reverse genetics technology offers the possibility to study the influence of particular amino acids of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) on adaptation to tissue culture. Genomic segments A and B of the very virulent (vv) IBDV field strain UK661 were completely cloned and sequenced, and the strain was rescued from full-length cDNA copies of both segments (UK661rev). Using site-directed mutagenesis, alteration...
