KLON VIRUS RNA MENULAR DAN VAKSIN SERTA ANALISA DIAGNOSTIK YANG DIPEROLEH DARINYA

摘要

The invention comprises a method for generating an infectious clone based on the genome of a positive strand RNA virus which has a genome of at least about 15 kb. The invention further comprises a method for generating an infectious clone based on the genome of an RNA virus, said method further comprising selecting infectious clones by transfecting a host cell with said recombinant nucleic acid whereby said host cell is in essence not susceptible to infection with said virus. The invention further provides modified RNA viruses and vaccines and diagnostic assays derived thereof.
