Recombinant Viral Vector Vaccines for the Veterinary Use

Abstract

Recently, genetically engineering using recombinant DNA techniques has been applied to design new viral vaccines in order to reduce some problems which present viral vaccines have. Up to now, many viruses have been investigated for development of recombinant attenuated vaccines or live viral vectors for delivery of foreign immunogenic antigens. In this review, we introduced three kind of viruses; herpesviruses, vaccinia viruses, and adenoviruses, which have best widely been studied as recombinant vaccines or delivery vaccines for the veterinary use.
