Based on the infectious cDNA clone of rSARS-CoV-DE, in which the E gene has been deleted, a safe non-infectious replicon was constructed by replacing the S gene with the enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) gene. For in-depth study of functions of different viral proteins and regulatory sequence elements by reverse genetics, full-length infectious cDNA clones have been established using various techniques including bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) vector [23] [24] [25] and SARS-CoV replicon cell lines [26] , which can also be used for antiviral drug screening.
