Complete Genome Sequence of Cell Culture-Attenuated Guinea Pig Cytomegalovirus Cloned as an Infectious Bacterial Artificial Chromosome
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: The complete genome sequence of attenuated guinea pig cytomegalovirus cloned as bacterial artificial chromosome N13R10 was determined. Comparison to pathogenic salivary gland-derived virus revealed 13 differences, 1 of which disrupted overlapping open reading frames encoding GP129 and GP130. Attenuation of N13R10 may arise from an inability to express GP129 and/or GP130.
