Abstract excerpt
Thymidine kinase (TK) genes from three alpha-herpesviruses (i.e., human herpes simplex type 1, varicella-zoster virus, equid herpesvirus 4) and two y-herpesviruses (i.e., Epstein-Barr virus and Saimiri herpesvirus 2) were cloned in expression vectors based on zeocin resistance by complementation of a TK-defective Escherichia coli strain. In vivo complementation of an appropriate yeast strain and in vitro...
