Characteristics of the double deleted oncolytic vaccinia virus expressing DAI. (a) Schematic figures of the virus constructs. Two novel armed vaccinia viruses were generated expressing human (vvdd-tdTomato-hDAI) or murine DAI (vvdd-tdTomato-mDAI). Both viruses express also tdTomato fluorescent protein as a reporter gene and are deleted in thymidine kinase and vaccinia growth factor genes. (b) DAI-expression does not hinder virus replication and cell killing efficacy. MTS cell viability assays were performed in several cell lines 5 days postinfection. Virus expressing human DAI was used for human cell lines and mDAI-virus for the mouse cell line B16-OVA.
