ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a composition of matter, comprising a non-infectious, mutated virus suitable for use in preparing a vaccine. A plasmid adapted for expression in a recombinant cell comprising DNA encoding non-infectious mutated virus protein and regulatory elements necessary for expression of said DNA in the cell. Also provided are methods of inhibiting the spread of infection of a virus comprising the step of contacting said virus with a compound that inhibits thiol-reductase/protein disulfide isomerase activity in said virus.
