Production Of Complementary Dna Representing Rna Viral Sequences By Recombinant Dna Methods And Uses Therefor

US Patent:
4719177, Jan 12, 1988
Filed:
Nov 12, 1981
Appl. No.:
6/320525
Inventors:
David Baltimore - Cambridge MA
Vincent R. Racaniello - Boston MA
Assignee:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
C12P 1934
C12N 1500
C12N 120
C12N 100
US Classification:
435 91
Abstract:
Methods for producing RNA viral cDNA, such as poliovirus ds cDNA, products thereof, and uses thereof, are described. Poliovirus cDNA is produced, for example, by reverse transcribing poliovirus RNA and subsequently inserting the poliovirus cDNA into bacterial plasmids by genetic-engineering techniques. Transformed bacteria are then cloned and cultured to produce replicated chimeric plasmids containing the cDNA poliovirus. Such poliovirus cDNA is useful in assaying for the presence of poliovirus and in the production of antibodies against poliovirus. It has also been found that full-length poliovirus cDNA is infectious, which means it can be employed in producing altered virus particles for vaccines.
