Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a new poultry genetic engineering vaccine. Specifically, it relates to a new bivalent genetically engineered vaccine for avian infectious bursal disease and pasteurellosis. Background technique
[0002] Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), which belongs to the double-stranded RNA virus family, can cause infectious bursal disease or Gumboro disease in chickens and turkeys. It causes immunosuppression in chickens aged 3 to 12 weeks by destroying B lymphocytes in chicken bursa.
[0003] The genome of IBDV consists of two segments of double-stranded RNA. The smaller segment (A) encodes VP1, a dsRNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The larger stretch (B) contains 2 open reading frames. Box 1 codes for the VP5 protein. Box 2 codes for a polyprotein, which can be automatically processed into three viral proteins by proteolytic enzymes, namely: VP2, VP4, and VP3. Among them, VP2 and VP3 are the main structural proteins of the virus. ...
