Abstract

A nucleic acid having a first nucleotide sequence encoding an infectious hepatitis C virus, a second nucleotide sequence encoding a ribozyme, and an inducible promoter operably linked to the first and second nucleotide sequences, the ribozyme being configured to remove a 3′ sequence unnecessary for replication of the infectious hepatitis C virus from a transcript initiated by the inducible, is described. A cell containing the nucleic acid and methods of using the cell are also described.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 - 16 . (canceled)  
     
     
         17 . A nucleic acid comprising a first nucleotide sequence encoding an infectious hepatitis C virus, a second nucleotide sequence encoding a ribozyme and, an inducible promoter operably linked to the first and second nucleotide sequences, the ribozyme being configured to remove a 3′ sequence unnecessary for replication of the infectious hepatitis C virus from a transcript initiated by the inducible promoter.  
     
     
         18 . The nucleic acid of  claim 17 , wherein the inducible promoter is a T7 promoter.  
     
     
         19 . The nucleic acid of  claim 17 , wherein the ribozyme is a hepatitis D virus ribozyme.  
     
     
         20 . (canceled)  
     
     
         21 . A cell comprising the nucleic acid of  claim 17 .  
     
     
         22 . The nucleic acid of  claim 17 , wherein the nucleic acid is a vector.  
     
     
         23 . The nucleic acid of  claim 22 , wherein the vector is a plasmid.  
     
     
         24 . The nucleic acid of  claim 17 , wherein the nucleic acid is an integration cassette.  
     
     
         25 . A cell comprising the nucleic acid of  claim 22 .  
     
     
         26 . A cell comprising the nucleic acid of  claim 24.
