  • Immunogenic composition
    Patent number: 9950059
    Abstract: Recombinant chimeric viruses based on NDV LaSota strain and containing either ILTV gB or gD are produced. Administration of the chimeric viruses to chickens induces an immune response in the animal against both NDV and ILTV. Immunogenic compositions, plasmids, kits and methods are described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 13, 2015
    Date of Patent: April 24, 2018
    Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture.

  • Methods and compositions for identifying cellular genes exploited by viral pathogens
    Publication number: 20080176962
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for rapidly identifying CGEPs required for viral infection of mammalian cells are provided. Also provided are methods of inhibiting viral infection of mammalian cells by inhibiting the activity of one or more CGEPs (e.g., as identified in accordance with methods of the invention) in the cells. Aspects of the invention further include specifically identified CGEPs implicated in mammalian cell infection of specific viruses, e.g., African Swine Fever Virus and Foot and Mouth Virus, and methods of modulating their activity to achieve viral resistance.
