Abstract

F gene-deficient virus virions are successfully recovered by using an F gene-deficient Sendai virus genomic cDNA. Further, F gene-deficient infectious viral particles are successfully constructed by using F-expressing cells as helper cells. Also, F gene and HN gene-deficient virus virions are successfully recovered by using a virus genomic cDNA deficient in both F gene and HN gene. Further, F gene and HN gene-deficient infectious viral particles are successfully produced by using F- and HN-expressing cells as helper cells. A virus deficient in F gene and HN gene and having F protein is constructed by using F-expressing cells as helper cells. In addition, M gene-deficient infectious virus particles were produced using helper cells expressing M protein. From cells infected with M gene-deficient viruses, release of virus-like particles was inhibited. Further, a VSV-G pseudo type virus is successfully constructed by using VSV-G-expressing cells. Techniques for constructing these deficient viruses contribute to the development of vectors of Paramyxoviridae usable in gene therapy.
