The invention discloses a construction method of porcine
delta coronavirus infectious clone plasmids, and belongs to the technical field of animal infectious
disease prevention and treatment and
biology. According to the invention, a reverse genetic
system of a
recombinant virus of a PDCoV CHN-HN-2014 strain is rescued based on a BAC
system and a
homologous recombination one-step
cloning method, wherein five
gene segments of the strain are cloned to an intermediate vector pBAC-M-PDCoV in one step, and a recombinant
plasmid pBAC-CHN-HN-2014 containing full-length cDNA of the PDCoV CHN-HN-2014 strain is obtained, and the
recombinant virus rCHN-HN-2014 is rescued after cells are transfected; therefore, a porcine
delta coronavirus reverse genetic manipulation platform is established, and a foundation is laid for in-depth study on infection and pathogenic mechanisms of PDCoV. Meanwhile, aiming at the practical problem that no available PDCoV vaccine exists in China at present, the PDCoV infectious
cloning platform disclosed by the invention can also be used for developing a
safer and more efficient novel PDCoV
genetic engineering vaccine. The platform can also be used as a
live virus vector and is used for developing a multi-combined vaccine, so that the PDCoV infectious
cloning platform disclosed by the invention has a great value for the research related to the
virus.
