  • Publication number: 20120021001
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a bovine viral diarrhea virus comprising at least one helicase domain amino acid mutation wherein the mutation in the NS3 domain results in a loss of recognition by a monoclonal antibody raised against wild-type NS3 but wherein viral RNA replication and the generation of infectious virus is retained. The present invention is useful, for example, to produce a marked bovine viral diarrhea virus vaccine or to differentiate between vaccinated and infected or unvaccinated animals.

  • Patent number: 7754222
    Abstract: The present invention provides safe vaccines and methods of preparing such vaccines. The vaccines of the present invention contain at least two live mutant viruses of the same family or nucleic acid molecules encoding such viruses, wherein each of the two viruses or the encoding nucleic acids contains a mutation that confers a desirable phenotype and the mutations in the viruses reside in the same genomic site such that the mutant viruses cannot recombine with each other to eliminate the mutations.
