Abstract excerpt
We report the construction of a Marek's disease virus (MDV) mutant containing the lacZ gene of Escherichia coli inserted into a homologue of the US6 (glycoprotein D, gD) gene of herpes simplex virus. The mutant was constructed using the high-passage GAatt85 MDV strain as the parent virus, since that strain grows readily in chicken embryo fibroblasts using culture conditions conducive to mutant virus construction....
