Development of viral infectious clones and their applications based on yeast and bacterial artificial chromosome platforms.
Infectious Clones represent a foundational technique in the field of reverse genetics, allowing for the construction and manipulation of full-length viral genomes. The main methods currently used for constructing viral infectious clones include Transformation-associated recombination (TAR), which is based on Yeast Artificial Chromosome (YAC) and Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC). The YAC and BAC systems are powerful tools that enable the clones and manipulation of large DNA fragments, making them well-suited for the construction of full-length viral genomes. These methods have been successfully applied to construct infectious clones for a wide range of viruses, including coronaviruses, herpesviruses, flaviviruses and baculoviruses. The rescued recombinant viruses from these infectious clones have been widely used in various research areas, such as vaccine development, antiviral drug screening, pathogenesis and virulence studies, gene therapy and vector design. However, as different viruses possess unique biological characteristics, the challenge remains in how to rapidly obtain infectious clones for future research. In summary, this review introduced the development and applications of infectious clones, with a focus on the YAC, BAC and combined YAC-BAC technologies. We emphasize the importance of these platforms in various research areas and aim to provide deeper insights that can advance the platform and broaden its application horizons.
