摘要:
Provided is an isolated mammalian negative strand RNA virus, metapneumovirus (MPV). Described are isolated mammalian negative strand RNA viruses identifiable as phylogenetically corresponding or relating to the genus Metapneumovirus and components thereof. Also described is mammalian MPV, subgroups and variants thereof, and genomic nucleotide sequences of different isolates of mammalian metapneumoviruses, in particular human metapneumoviruses. The use of the sequence information of different isolates of mammalian metapneumoviruses for diagnostic and therapeutic methods is provided. Nucleotide sequences encoding the genome of a metapneumovirus or a portion thereof, including both mammalian and avian metapneumovirus are described. Also provided are chimeric or recombinant viruses encoded by said nucleotide sequences and chimeric and recombinant mammalian MPV that comprise one or more non-native or heterologous sequences.
摘要:
The present invention relates to genetically engineered recombinant respiratory syncytial viruses and viral vectors which contain deletions of various viral accessory gene(s) either singly or in combination. In accordance with the present invention, the recombinant respiratory syncytial viral vectors and viruses are engineered to contain complete deletions of the M2-2, NS1, NS2, or SH viral accessory genes or various combinations thereof. In addition, the present invention relates to the attenuation of respiratory syncytial virus by mutagenisis of the M2-1 gene.

The present invention relates to recombinant bovine parainfluenza virus (bPIV) cDNA or RNA which may be used to express heterologous gene products in appropriate host cell systems and/or to rescue negative strand RNA recombinant viruses that express, package, and/or present the heterologous gene product. In particular, the heterologous gene products include gene product of another species of PIV or from another negative strand RNA virus, including but not limited to, influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, human metapneumovirus and avian pneumovirus. The chimeric viruses and expression products may advantageously be used in vaccine formulations including vaccines against a broad range of pathogens and antigens.
