  • Patent number: 5369025
    Abstract: A recombinant fowlpox virus is disclosed which is useful as a vaccine for protection against Marek's Disease. The recombinant virus preferably contains a gene for one or more Marek's Disease Virus antigens such as glycoprotein B homologue, glycoprotein C homologue, glycoprotein D homologue, glycoprotein H homologue and tegument proteins, under the control of a poxvirus promoter within a region of the DNA of fowlpox virus which is not essential for virus growth.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 10, 1991
    Date of Patent: November 29, 1994
    Assignees: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture, Nippon Zeon Co., Ltd.

  • Patent number: 4757020
    Abstract: Expression plasmids containing the full cDNA sequence of calf prochymosin and capable of expressing prochymosin gene in E. coli host cells are disclosed. A method is described for the preparation of said plasmids which comprises altering the spacing between the SD and ATG sequences within the E. coli trp promoter-operator region of the parent expression plasmid, pCR 701, which is known to express prochymosin gene in the E. coli host cells. These modified expression plasmids are designed to provide high expression levels of prochymosin.
