Plasmid-based human norovirus reverse genetics system produces reporter-tagged progeny virus containing infectious genomic RNA
5 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
Human norovirus (HuNoV) is the leading cause of gastroenteritis worldwide. HuNoV replication studies have been hampered by the inability to grow the virus in cultured cells. The HuNoV genome is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) molecule with three open reading frames (ORFs). We established a reverse genetics system driven by a mammalian promoter that functions without helper virus. The complete genome...
