Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 27 words
A non-naturally occurring pseudorabies virus, characterized in that upon replication it produces no glycoprotein X (gX) as a result of the viral DNA being altered or deleted.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 27 words
A non-naturally occurring pseudorabies virus, characterized in that upon replication it produces no glycoprotein X (gX) as a result of the viral DNA being altered or deleted.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 1, wherein said virus produces no gX as a result of a deletion, an insertion or both a deletion and an insertion in the gX gene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 2, having a deletion in the gX gene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 2, having an insertion in the gX gene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 1, wherein the virus produces no functional thymidine kinase.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 2, wherein the virus produces no functional thymidine kinase.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 3, wherein the virus produces no functional thymidine kinase.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pseudorabies virus according to claim 4, wherein the virus produces no functional thymidine kinase.
