INSERTION OF HETEROLOGOUS GENE FROM A PATHOGEN TO PRODUCE A RECOMBINANT CAPRIPOXVIRUS

摘要

A heterologous coding sequence, for example for an antigen associated with a viral or other disease, is inserted in a non-essential region of the capripoxvirus genome, for example the TK (thymidine kinase) coding region or the open reading frames designated herein as CT3C, CT4 or Q2.
