For 10 points, Jonas Salk developed a vaccine against what virus?
Eckard Wimmer's group at SUNY Stony Brook was condemned for showing that this pathogen's genome could be assembled entirely from synthetic cDNA fragments. A modified version of this pathogen, P·V·S-RIPO, is being tested in clinical trials to treat glioblastoma. The T·g·P·V·R mouse line was developed to model the effects of infection by this virus. In the 1960s, Bernice Eddy found that rhesus monkey cells used to prepare vaccines against this virus were contaminated with S·V·40. It replicates in the oropharynx and small intestine before spreading into the C·N·S, where it kills lower motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord. Albert Sabin developed an oral vaccine for this virus, which is responsible for a disease that can result in long-term muscle paralysis and atrophy.
