Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) SH and G proteins are not essential for viral replication in vitro: Clinical evaluation and molecular characterization of a cold-passaged, attenuated RSV subgroup B mutant

Karron, Ruth A., Buonagurio, Deborah A., Georgiu, Alice F., Whitehead, Stephen S., Adamus, Jean E., Clements-Mann, Mary Lou, ...

A live, cold-passaged (cp) candidate vaccine virus, designated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) B1 cp-52/2B5 (cp-52), replicated efficiently in Vero cells, but was found to be overattenuated for...

Enhanced Measles Virus cDNA Rescue and Gene Expression after Heat Shock

Parks, Christopher L., Lerch, Robert A., Walpita, Pramila, Sidhu, Mohinderjit S., Udem, Stephen A.

Rescue of negative-stranded RNA viruses from full-length genomic cDNA clones is an essential technology for genetic analysis of this class of viruses. Using this technology in our studies of measles...

A Single Amino Acid Change in the Hemagglutinin Protein of Measles Virus Determines Its Ability To Bind CD46 and Reveals Another Receptor on Marmoset B Cells

Hsu, Eric C., Sarangi, Farida, Iorio, Caterina, Sidhu, Mohinderjit S., Udem, Stephen A., Dillehay, Dirck L., ...

This paper provides evidence for a measles virus receptor other than CD46 on transformed marmoset and human B cells. We first showed that most tissues of marmosets are missing the SCR1 domain of...

Rescue of Mumps Virus from cDNA

Clarke, David K., Sidhu, Mohinderjit S., Johnson, J. Erik, Udem, Stephen A.

A complete DNA copy of the genome of a Jeryl Lynn strain of mumps virus (15,384 nucleotides) was assembled from cDNA fragments such that an exact antigenome RNA could be generated following...
