ABSTRACT:
A full-length cDNA copy of an attenuated, cell culture-adapted hepatitis-A virus genome has been constructed. The HAV cDNA when inserted, without the oligo (dG) oligo (dC) tails, into an RNA transcription vector yielded a plasmid designated pHAV/7. Transfection of monkey kidney cells with pHAV/7 DNA yielded HAV. Transfection with RNA transcripts produced in vitro from pHAV/7 yielded about 10-fold more HAV than transfection with pHAV/7 DNA. HAV thus produced are useful as a vaccine.
