ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a cell line capable of supporting replication of a growth-defective Herpes Simplex Virus strain; specifically a replication-defective HSV-2 double mutant. Particularly disclosed is a cell line that expresses the ICP8 protein and the UL5 protein of Herpes Simplex Virus. This cell line is useful to propagate a replication-defective HSV-2 vaccine strain that contains mutations and/or deletions in the ICP8 and UL5 genes.
