High-Level Expression of Marek's Disease Virus Glycoprotein C Is Detrimental to Virus Growth In Vitro
27 Apr 2005
Abstract excerpt
Expression levels of Marek's disease virus (MDV) glycoprotein C (gC) are significantly reduced after serial virus passage in cell culture. Reduced gC expression coincides with enhanced MDV growth in vitro and attenuation. To analyze this phenomenon in detail, a full-length infectious MDV clone was modified by Red-based and shuttle mutagenesis in Escherichia coli. Besides a gC-negative deletion mutant harboring a...
