Recombinant prrs proteins, diagnostic kits and vaccines containing said recombinant proteins

摘要

The present invention discloses the production of recombinant proteins of the virus causing the porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome (PRRS), corresponding to the ORFs 2-7 of the PRRSV isolated in Spain, (PRRS-Olot), in a system of expression of recombinant baculoviruses multiplided in a cell culture of a permissive host. Said recombinant proteins are appropriate to formulate vaccines capable of efficiently protecting pigs against PRRS as well as to prepare diagnotic kits appropriate to detect both the presence of antibodies which recognize PRRSV and the presence of PRRSV in a porcine biological sample. This invention applies to veterinary.
