The live attenuated human rotavirus vaccine strain RIX4414 (Rotarix®) is used worldwide to prevent severe rotavirus-induced diarrhea in infants. This strain was attenuated through the cell culture passaging of its predecessor, human strain 89-12, which resulted in multiple genomic mutations. However, the specific molecular reasons underlying its attenuation have remained elusive, primarily due to the absence of a suitable reverse genetics system enabling precise genetic manipulations. Therefore, we first completed the sequencing of its genome and then developed a reverse genetics system for the authentic RIX4414 virus. Our experimental results demonstrate that the rescued recombinant RIX4414 virus exhibits biological characteristics similar to those of the parental RIX4414 virus, both in vitro and in vivo. This novel reverse genetics system provides a powerful tool for investigating the molecular basis of RIX4414 attenuation and may facilitate the rational design of safer and more effective human rotavirus vaccines.
