[Genetic and phenotypic analysis of heterogeneous population of a cold-adapted donor of the A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2) attenuation and of the donor-based reassortant influenza vaccine strains].

Abstract excerpt

Cold-adapted (CA) temperature sensitive and attenuated virus A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2) (Len/17) has been recently used in Russia as a donor of internal genes in the preparation of reassortant vaccine strains of CA live influenza vaccine (LIV) for all age groups. The Len/17 population was found to be heterogeneous and to be made up of clones, which differ by combinations of mutations in internal genes. Around...
