Generation of recombinant vaccinia virus and analysis of virus-induced cell death
STAR Protocols, 2021 Summary: Vaccinia virus is a large double-stranded DNA virus that is widely used to express foreign genes from different origins. We generated recombinant vaccinia virus that expresses a viral inhibitor to examine its effect on virus-induced necroptosis.

Interactions between vaccinia virus and sensitized macrophages in vitro [PDF]
, 1975 The action of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) from normal and vaccinia virus infected mice on infectious vaccinia virus particles was investigatedin vitro. PEC from immune mice showed a significantly higher infectivity titre reduction (virus clearance, VC)

Reemergence of Vaccinia Virus during Zoonotic Outbreak, Pará State, Brazil
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 In 2010, vaccinia virus caused an outbreak of bovine vaccinia that affected dairy cattle and rural workers in Pará State, Brazil. Genetic analyses identified the virus as distinct from BeAn58058 vaccinia virus (identified in 1960s) and from smallpox ...

Role of early viral surface antigens in cellular immune response to vaccinia virus [PDF]
, 1976 Infection of mice with the vaccinia virus strain WR, Elstree or DIs, a conditional lethal mutant of vaccinia virus, resulted in the generation of vaccinia virus-specific sensitized cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL).

Lysis mediated by T cells and restricted by H-2 antigen of target cells infected with vaccinia virus [PDF]
, 1975 VARIOUS virus infections lead to the formation of cytotoxic lymphocytes (CL), which are capable of killing virus-infected target cells1−4. Specific lysis of target cells infected with 51Cr-labelled vaccinia virus could be observed when investigating the ...

Effect of the deletion of genes encoding proteins of the extracellular virion form of vaccinia virus on vaccine immunogenicity and protective effectiveness in the mouse model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Antibodies to both infectious forms of vaccinia virus, the mature virion (MV) and the enveloped virion (EV), as well as cell-mediated immune response appear to be important for protection against smallpox.

Vaccinia virus replication is not affected by APOBEC3 family members
Virology Journal, 2006 Background The APOBEC3G protein represents a novel innate defense mechanism against retroviral infection. It facilitates the deamination of the cytosine residues in the single stranded cDNA intermediate during early steps of retroviral infection.

Passatempo Virus, a Vaccinia Virus Strain, Brazil
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 Passatempo virus was isolated during a zoonotic outbreak. Biologic features and molecular characterization of hemagglutinin, thymidine kinase, and vaccinia growth factor genes suggested a vaccinia virus infection, which strengthens the idea of the ...
