Abstract excerpt
A recombinant vaccinia virus vector was constructed which expressed the major surface glycoprotein G of human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and the thymidine kinase (tk) gene of vaccinia virus. The virulence of this tk+ recombinant virus was compared with that of a tk- recombinant and the wild-type (wt) virus after intranasal inoculation of mice. Respiratory infection with wt virus resulted in a lethal...
