Abstract

The invention relates to a modified baculovirus wherein one of the two strong late promoters of the wild baculovirus is inactive, as well as to a method for obtaining such a modified baculovirus and to its application for obtaining vectors for the expression of exogenous genes. Said modified baculovirus is particularly deprived of the polyhedrin gene promoter and contains the protein P10 gene promoter.
