In vitro host range, multiplication and virion forms of recombinant viruses obtained from co-infection in vitro with a vaccinia-vectored influenza vaccine and a naturally occurring cowpox virus isolate
Tryland, Morten; Okeke, Malachy Ifeanyi; Nilssen, Øivind; Moens, Ugo; Traavik, Terje (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2009-05-12)Background: Poxvirus-vectored vaccines against infectious diseases and cancer are currently under development. We hypothesized that the extensive use of poxvirus-vectored vaccine in future might result in co-infection and recombination between the vaccine virus and naturally occurring poxviruses, resulting in hybrid viruses with unpredictable characteristics. Previously, we confirmed that ... -
Molecular characterization and phylogenetics of Fennoscandian cowpox virus isolates based on the p4c and atip genes
Okeke, Malachy Ifeanyi; Okoli, Arinze Stanley; Nilssen, Øivind; Moens, Ugo; Tryland, Morten; Bøhn, Thomas; Traavik, Terje (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background: Cowpox virus (CPXV), a rodent-borne Orthopoxvirus (OPV) that is indigenous to Eurasia can infect humans, cattle, felidae and other animals. Molecular characterization of CPXVs isolated from different geographic locations is important for the understanding of their biology, geographic distribution, classification and evolution. Our aim was to characterize CPXVs isolated from Fennoscandia ...
