In this study, the proviral DNA was extracted from do nk ey leukocyte infected with Chinese donkey leukocyte attenuated (DLA) strain of e quine infectious anemia virus (EIAV). Three fragments covering the entire EIAV g enome were amplified by PCR using the proviral DNA as template. A recombinant pl asmid (designated as p8.0) was obtaining by ligating these three fragments. The p8.0 was subcloned into a plasmid (designated as p8.2) containing entire LTR of EIAV DLA. The complete nucleotide sequence of DLA st...
