Fowl adenovirus 9 (fadv-9) vector system and associated methods

摘要

Described are recombinant viral vectors obtained from fowl adenovirus 9 (FAdV-9) and associated methods. The recombinant FAdV-9 vectors may include one or more deletions at the left end and/or right end of the FAdV-9 genome. Optionally, the vectors include one or more exogenous nucleotide sequences, such a sequences encoding for a polypeptide of interest. The recombinant FAdV-9 vectors may be used as a dual delivery vector. Also described is the use of the vectors for generating an immunogenic response in a subject and/or for the prevention of disease.
