Abstract excerpt
Sabin vaccine strains of poliovirus (PV) contain major attenuation determinants in the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES), an area that directs viral protein synthesis. To examine the effect of reduced viral protein synthesis on PV neurovirulence, spacer sequences, consisting of short open read...
