Abstract
The present invention relates novel live bovine adenovirus (BAV) expression vector systems in which part or all of one or both of the early region 1 (E1) and early region 3 (E3) genes are deleted and replaced by a foreign gene or fragment thereof and novel recombinant mammalian cell lines stably transformed with BAV E1 sequences, and therefore, express E1 gene products capable of allowing replication therein of a bovine adenovirus having an E1 deletion replaced by a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding a foreign gene or fragment thereof and their use in production of (antigenic) polypeptides or fragments thereof for the purpose of live recombinant virus or subunit vaccine or for other therapies.
