A recombinant vaccinia virus expressing canine interferon (IFN)-beta was constructed (vv/cIFN-beta). In rabbit kidney (RK13) and canine A72 cells infected with vv/cIFN-beta, the recombinant canine IFN-beta was detected in both cell extracts and supernatants, and the IFN activities of the culture supernatants were also detected. Inhibition of N-linked glycosylation by tunicamycin treatment indicated that the recombinant canine IFN-beta was modified by N-linked glycosylation in a different way between RK13 and A72 cells, and that N-linked glycosylation is essential for its secretion. The growth of vv/cIFN-beta at a low multiplicity of infection was inhibited by antiviral activity of canine IFN-beta, indicating that this recombinant virus could be used as a suicide viral vector.

D004285 Dogs The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065) Canis familiaris,Dog
D005822 Genetic Vectors DNA molecules capable of autonomous replication within a host cell and into which other DNA sequences can be inserted and thus amplified. Many are derived from PLASMIDS; BACTERIOPHAGES; or VIRUSES. They are used for transporting foreign genes into recipient cells. Genetic vectors possess a functional replicator site and contain GENETIC MARKERS to facilitate their selective recognition.

D006031 Glycosylation The synthetic chemistry reaction or enzymatic reaction of adding carbohydrate or glycosyl groups. GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASES carry out the enzymatic glycosylation reactions. The spontaneous, non-enzymatic attachment of reducing sugars to free amino groups in proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids is called GLYCATION (see MAILLARD REACTION).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
