AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

There is no effective vaccine available to combat eel herpesvirus 1 (AngHV-1), which causes significant mortality and economic losses in eel fisheries, and existing vaccines face challenges such as interference with the host's immune system and stringent environmental release regulations.

Method used

Development of a live recombinant AngHV-1 virus with a dysfunctional open reading frame 35 (ORF35) that induces abortive infection in fish, providing immune protection without replicating and releasing new viral particles, allowing for safe and economical vaccination by immersion.

Benefits of technology

The ORF35-deficient live recombinant AngHV-1 virus effectively confers protection against wild-type AngHV-1 infection in fish, ensuring safety and compliance with environmental regulations while offering a cost-effective vaccination method.
