Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided herein are details on the construction of a recombinant African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) live attenuated vaccine for prevention of ASF caused by various strains of ASFV, such as the highly virulent Georgia 2007 isolate (“ASFV-G”). An exemplary vaccine comprises the ASFV-GΔI1771 modified virus, a recombinant ASFV-G modified by deleting a portion of the I177L ORF rendering the I177L gene nonfunctional.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A genetically modified virus, wherein the virus genome comprises a viral genome at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2. 2. The virus of claim 1 , wherein the virus genome comprises a viral genome at least 99% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2. 3. The virus of claim 1 , wherein the viral genome comprises SEQ ID NO:2. 4. A vaccine composition against African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV), comprising the genetically modified virus of claim 1 , wherein the ASFV is ASFV-Georgia 2007 isolate (ASFV-G). 5. A method for the protection of swine against ASFV-G, comprising administering to a swine a live attenuated vaccine comprising the genetically modified virus of claim 1 in an amount effective to protect said swine from clinical ASFV-G disease. 6. A recombinant ASFV mutant virus, comprising a synthetic mutation in the I177L open reading frame or in a regulatory element controlling the expression of the I177L protein, resulting in a non-functional genomic I177L gene, wherein the mutant ASFV comprises a genome at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2. 7. The recombinant virus of claim 6 , wherein the mutant ASFV comprises a genome at least 99% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.
