Attenuated isolates were produced by:
• Low virulence field isolates
• Viruses attenuated by tissue culture passages
• Viruses with genetically engineered deletions
Live attenuated virus strains are effective
protecting against the challenge with
homologous virulent virus

Attenuated isolates were produced by:

African swine fever virus genome
• Double-stranded DNA virus (genome 170-190kb)
• Contains more than 150 genes
• Most of the genes have been characterized by
functional genomics
• Very few genes (30%) have been experimentally
studied.
19 different genes tested
8 genes associated with
virulence: (9GL, NL, UK, MGF,
DP148R, TK, CD2, I177L)

ASFV-G-Δ9GL

attenuate Georgia strain as
efficiently as it does in either
Malawi or Pretoria isolates

P96RASFV-G-9GL/UK:
• Deletion of UK in the ASFV-G-9GL genome
increases virus attenuation at least hundred times

Several naturally attenuated isolates present deletions in this area
These genes have been involved in modulation of the innate immune response
These genes was shown to revert to virulence virus attenuated strains having
deletions in this area of the genome
The MGF360/MGF505 area
and virus attenuation

HLJ/18-7GD
INIM
HLJ/18-7GD remains attenuated after 5
passages in pigs and was innocuous in
pregnant sows
Several laboratories showed that deletion of
MGF360/505 genes efficiently attenuate virus virulence
Virus having deleted these genes produce protection
against disease caused by homologous virus challenge
MGF360/505 genes area is inclined to participate in
recombination events. Problems with genetic stability?

ASFV-G-I177L
ASFV-G-I177L
• Induces protection even at a dose of 102 HAD50
• Lacks residual virulence even at a dose of 106 HAD50
• Does not induce virus shedding
• Induces sterile immunity

Gaps
Study critical aspects of vaccine candidates (onset and duration of
immunity, genetic stability, attenuation stability, minimal protection
doses, possible routes of inoculation)
• Standardization of methodologies to test efficacy of vaccine candidates
(vaccine doses, route of inoculation, challenge dose)
• Develop vaccine candidates with DIVA capability
• Investigate the bases of the differential effect in virus virulence of
deleting the same genes among different virus isolates (9GL, NL, UK,
TK, DP148R)
• Continue the discovery and characterization of virulence associate genes
