  • Patent number: 6225111
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-naturally occurring, recombinant equine herpesvirus. The invention also relates to a recombinant equine herpesvirus capable of replication which comprises viral DNA from a species of equine herpesvirus and foreign DNA, the foreign DNA being inserted into the equine herpesviral DNA at a site which is not essential for replication of the equine herpesvirus. The invention also relates to DNA encoding the US2 protein of an equine herpesvirus. The invention relates to homology vectors for producing recombinant equine herpesviruses which produce recombinant equine herpesviruses by inserting foreign DNA into equine herpesviral DNA. The invention further relates to a method of producing a fetal-safe, live recombinant equine herpesvirus.
