Characterization of a Marek's disease virus mutant containing a lacZ insertion in the US6 (gD) homologue gene.

Virus genes - 1 Sept 1994

Parcells M S, Anderson A S, Morgan R W

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....
