Development Of Gene Deleted Recombinant Pseudorabies Virus

The glycoprotein E (gE) and thymidine kinase (TK) genes are virulence-associated genes of pseudorabies virus (PrV). The study conducted was to shut down the gE gene from an established local TK defective (TK¯) PrV strain (TK¯gE+PrV). The ultimate aim of the study was to develop a gene-deleted recomb...
