title: [Construction, genetic stability and protective efficacy of recombinant fowlpox virus expressing hemagglutinin gene of H5N1 subtype avian influenza virus].
abstract: Construction, genetic stability and protective efficacy of a recombinant fowlpox virus expressing hemagglutinin (HA) gene (rFPV-HA) of H5 subtype avian influenza virus were conducted. The results indicated that the recombinant fowlpox virus was obtained and purified by blue plaque selection. HA expressed by rFPV-HA was identified by indirect immunofluorescence array. The rFPV-HA could express reporter gene LacZ and HA gene after fifteen successive passages in chicken embryo fibroblast. The rFPV-HA induced completely protection of chickens against lethal challenge with homologous avian influenza virus. The results show that rFPV-HA has good genetic stability and antigenicity and should be a useful tool in HPAI control program by preventing illness and death in chickens when the disease spreads widely.
