Construction of vector pBK-1,2VT for use in quantitative genodiagnostics of BK-virus infection

Abstract

BK virus (BKV) is the infectious cause of polyomavirus-associated nephropathy that leads to the loss of the graft in renal transplant recipients. In this article we describe a construction of recombinant vector pBK-1.2VT that contains two BKV genome fragments significant for virus detection. The resulting vector is recommended as a positive control for quantitative measurement of the BKV DNA content in urine and blood serum by real-time PCR.
