FIELD: genetic engineering, biochemistry, virology.
SUBSTANCE: invention proposes recombinant plasmid pCI-neo-ODC-nsP1 and its variants pCI-neo-ODC-E2-L and pCI-neo-ODC-E2-M encoding proteins of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) and ornithine decarboxylase protein. Plasmids are prepared by the sequential cloning gene-equivalent of non-structural protein nsP1 (fragments of L,M of the structural protein E2) of VEE virus as component of gene encoding enzyme ornithine decarboxylase being firstly into prokaryotic plasmid vector pET-23b and then into eucaryotic plasmid vector pCI-neo. Prepared plasmids can be used in the development of protective preparations used against Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus as a prophylactic agent with respect of this pathogen.
EFFECT: valuable biological and medicinal properties of plasmid and agents.
