ABSTRACT:
A safe, effective vaccine for the protection of susceptible animals against foot-and-mouth disease has been produced. The vaccine comprises a mutant virus from which the amino acid sequence Gly-Val-Arg-Gly-Asp-Phe (SEQ ID NO: 8) from the G-H loop of VP1 has been deleted and replaced with the amino acid sequence Asn-Pro. The mutant virus retains its antigenicity but is not infectious.
