  • Publication number: 20150361403
    Abstract: The present invention is based on the discovery that large parts of the genome of nucleopolyhedtovirus (NPV)-alpha baculovirus clade Ia viruses can be deleted with out deleterious effect on the usability of the virus comprising such genome in the infection of cells in cell culture. Accordingly, the present invention provides NPY-alpha baculovirus clade Ia genome which is reduced in size in comparison to the respective native NPV-alpha baculovirus clade Ia genome, such genomes comprising heterologous nucleotides, viruses comprising either of these genomes, cells infected with such viruses and methods for producing such viruses and cells.
