RECOMBINANT ADENOVIRUSES WHICH EXPRESS ANTIGENS OF THE TRANSMISSIBLE PORCINE GASTROENTERITIS VIRUS AND USE THEREOF IN THE FORMULATION OF VACCINES

摘要

The recombinant adenoviruses contain in their genomes the sequence of the gene S of the transmissible porcine gastroenteritis virus or a sequence derived from said gene which contains, at least, one of the antigenic sites of the protein S of the transmissible porcine gastroenteritis virus. Said recombinant adenoviruses may be used in the formulation of vaccines in order to protect porcine cattle against the infection by the tansmissible porcine gastroenteritis virus and against the disease caused by said virus. This invention applies to the veterinary science.
