Three years later, the performance of poliovirus cDNA clones could be significantly ameliorated through the introduction of SV40 transcription and replication signals and transfection of the resulting construct into cells expressing the SV40 large T antigen [14] , thus ensuring replication of the DNA-plasmid in eukaryotic cells leading to a higher yield of viral RNA and recovered virus (Fig. 2, left part) . The resulting virus CP7_E2alf was only able to infect pigs and thus displayed the Fig. 3 Generation of a chimeric viral genome from two parental RNAs. On the level of a cDNA construct, one protein-coding sequence is replaced by the corresponding gene of the other virus (principle used for the pestivirus vaccine CP7_E2alf [58] ). ./cache/cord-339288-y8woqsii.txt ./txt/cord-339288-y8woqsii.txt
