Genetic bases of the temperature-sensitive phenotype of a master donor virus used in live attenuated influenza vaccines: A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2)

Abstract: Trivalent live attenuated influenza vaccines whose type A components are based on cold-adapted A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2) (caLen17) master donor virus (MDV) have been successfully used in Russia for decades to control influenza. The vaccine virus comprises hemagglutinin and neuraminidase genes from the circulating viruses and the remaining six genes from the MDV. The latter confer temperature-sensitive (ts) and attenuated (att) phenotypes. The ts phenotype of the vaccine virus is a critical biological determ… Show more

“…The internal genes that include the ca mutations were also major determinants of the phenotypic characteristics of caVNLen17rg compared to VN-Len134rg parent virus, in agreement with the in vitro findings (37). Reversion of nine amino acid mutations from the cold-adapted virus dramatically shifted virus tro- 50 of either VN1203 or EG321 HPAI virus.…”

“…with wt Len134 had ϳ4.5 log 10 50% egg infective doses (EID 50 ) in lungs at 3 dpi, whereas the caLen17 virus was below detection levels. We generated reverse genetics-derived Len134 virus (37), but despite similar temperature-sensitive profiles of Len134 and Len134-rg viruses in MDCK cells (Fig. 1), the latter virus replicated in mouse lung significantly less efficiently than did the authentic Len134 virus.…”

“…Hence, it will be important to ensure that replacement of the NP or M gene in the genome of LAIV viruses does not affect their temperature sensitivity. The molecular signatures of the ts phenotypes of A/Ann Arbor/1/66 and A/Leningrad/134/17/57-based LAIV strains have been intensively studied, and the phenotype has been mapped to mutations in the polymerase proteins PB2 and PB1 [17,18]. In addition, a mutation in NP (D34G) has been identified as one of the determinants of temperature sensitivity of the A/Ann Arbor/6/66 MDV [17].…”
