dc.description.abstractOf the many vaccine trials which have taken place, the most promising results have been obtained from the recent phase 3 clinical trial which tested the ability of a dual protein and Canarypox virus recombinant to protect humans against HIV-1 infections. Because poxviruses are being developed as vaccine vectors against a number of diseases, it is important to continue the search for novel poxvirus vectors, in particular, those that do not cross-neutralize one another. This thesis describes the preliminary work performed on the development of Penguinpox virus (PEPV) as a vaccine vector.en_ZA
