Abstract:
The present invention discloses a two-component genome flavivirus and a method for propagating such virus. Since the genetic material of this flavivirus is distributed between two genomes, the flavivirus is deficient in replication, incapable of causing disease but capable of inducing an immune response. Nevertheless, the design of the replication deficient flavivirus discussed herein allows propagation of these flaviviruses at industrial level.
