Abstract
Disclosed herein are nucleic acids, vector systems, and vaccines for vaccinating fresh water and marine fish using(Ich) i-antigens. In particular, a recombinant attenuatedvaccine (RAEV) vector system is disclosed with regulated delayed attenuation and regulated delayed lysis in vivo attributes that synthesizes Ich protective antigens to enable vaccination of fresh water and marine fish species susceptible to white spot disease. This vaccine construct is designed to exhibit the invasive properties of virulentat the time of bath immunization and then is programmed to gradually lose virulence attributes and to synthesize protective antigens as a consequence of in vivo cell division as the RAEV colonizes internal effector lymphoid tissues. The ultimate lysis in vivo delivers a bolus of protective antigen along with immunostimulatory molecules to exhibit complete biological containment with no potential for survival in vivo or ex vivo.
