Abstract excerpt
A new system was developed for producing conditional-lethal vaccinia virus mutants using the tetracycline controlled gene expression system from bacteria. The tetracycline resistance operon (tetO) sequence was placed between the promoter and coding sequence of the target gene of the virus. To regulate the expression of the target gene, the tetO-containing virus was used to infect a tetracycline repressor (TetR)...
