TRANSFER PLASMIDIC VECTOR AND RECOMBINANT CANARYPOX VIRUS

摘要

A recombinant virus from the canarypox virus (CNPV) is provided, being the virus capable of acting in vivo as an expression vector of foreign genes inserted in genomic regions non-essential for viral replication, that show genetic stability, wherein said genomic regions correspond to at least a gene selected from CNPV018 (SEQ ID No 1), CNPV048 (SEQ ID No 2) and CNPV134 (SEQ ID No 3) of the canarypox virus genome. A plasmidic transfer vector susceptible of homologous recombination with a canarypox virus is provided. Vaccines and immunization methods are also provided.
