Rescue of synthetic genomic RNA analogs of rabies virus by plasmid-encoded proteins

Abstract excerpt

Proteins entirely expressed from cDNA were used to rescue synthetic RNA genome analogs into infectious defective particles of rabies virus (RV). Synthetic negative-stranded RNAs containing 3'- and 5'-terminal RV sequences and transcriptional signal sequences were transcribed from plasmids transfected into cells expressing T7 RNA polymerase from recombinant vaccinia virus. After simultaneous expression of RV N, P,...
