Abstract

The present invention provides recombinant DNA molecules comprising a sequence encoding a pseudorabies virus (PRV) glycoprotein selected from the group consisting of gI, gp50, and gp63, host cells transformed by said recombinant DNA molecule sequences, the gI, gp50 and gp63 polypeptides. The present invention also provides subunit vaccines for PRV, methods for protecting animals against PRV infection and methods for distinguishing between infected and vaccinated animals.
