一株草鱼呼肠孤病毒弱毒株的分离、鉴定及免疫原性初步分析

从江西南昌患出血病草鱼体内分离出的草鱼病毒(暂命名为JX09-01)能使草鱼肾脏细胞(CIK)、草鱼肝细胞(L8824)、草鱼吻端成纤维细胞(PSF)产生明显的细胞病变效应(CPE)。感染CIK 细胞固定后经电镜观察,发现细胞质内有大量病毒聚集, 形态和排列方式与已报道的草鱼呼肠孤病毒(Grass carp reovirus, GCRV)相似。针对GCRV 873 株S6 基因设计的简并引物可以从病料组织和感染细胞中扩增出目的条带, 而针对GCRVHZ08 株S6 基因设计特异性引物未能扩增出目的条带。对JX09-01 株的S6 全基因进行序列分析表明, 其核苷酸序列同GCRV 873 株和HZ08 株的同源性分别是99.3%和30.4%, 推导出的氨基酸序列同源性分别是98.6%和30%, 说明草鱼病毒JX09-01 株为草鱼呼肠孤病毒。用JX09-01 株接种当年8-10 cm左右的草鱼, 没有明显的临床症状, 不能致草鱼死亡。用传代至15 代的CIK 细胞病毒液进行免疫保护试验, 结果显示其对强毒株的免疫保护率达到86.7%。实验结果初步显示, 新分离到的JX09-01 为草鱼呼肠孤病毒弱毒株, 可作为弱毒疫苗的候选毒株。       

南方养殖草鱼呼肠孤病毒的分子特性比较及双重PCR检测方法的建立

本实验室2009年从广东省患典型出血病的养殖草鱼中分离到一株具强致病性的水生呼肠孤病毒GCRV-GD108株,该毒株具有11个节段双链RNA。全基因组序列分析显示与草鱼呼肠孤病毒GCRV及水生呼肠孤病毒属其它已知种存在较大的分子差异。本研究进一步检测了广东、福建、湖南等地草鱼出血病流行毒株的分子特性。根据已克隆到的GCRV-GD108株11个节段序列分别设计合成特异引物,从各地收集患出血病草鱼,提取组织总RNA,RT-PCR检测。结果表明各检测样品均可扩增到特异性条带,而GCRV标准株则无特异条带;同时根据GCRV标准株序列合成的特异引物进行扩增,GCRV标准株有特异性条带,而各检测样品则均无带。测序结果显示各样品间相应片段序列的同源性很高(95.2%~99.4%),与GCRV-GD108的相应序列也具高同源性(95.0%~99.8%),说明检测样品与GCRV-GD108株具有相似的分子特性,均与GCRV及水生呼肠孤病毒属的其它种存在较大差异。本研究结果提示我国养殖草鱼出血病病毒存在着不同的分子类型,GCRV-GD108株在南方具有一定的代表性,在病害防控上尤其是疫苗研制与使用上应予关注。此外,从上述引物中筛选出适合于双重PCR的引物对,建立了双重PCR检测方法,可在一次PCR反应中鉴别所感染的病毒属于GCRV或GCRV-GD108株。     

草鱼呼肠孤病毒RNA聚合酶基因功能区在原核细胞中的表达

草鱼呼肠孤病毒(grass carp reovirus)为我国分离、鉴定的第一株水生动物病毒.1983年,我国首次报道引起爆发性草鱼出血病的病原为草鱼出血病病毒[1,2],其后相继进行了系统的病毒形态学、生物学、生物化学及分子生物学特性等研究[3-8].自1979年Meyers T R等报道从水生动物中分离出第一株呼肠孤样病毒,迄今国际上已分离鉴定40余种水生呼肠孤病毒(aquareovirus).在这些分离株中,大多数毒株不能引起寄主的病理反应或仅表现出较弱的致病性.然而研究认为,GCRV为水生呼肠孤病毒中致病力最强的毒株[9].可见,以GCRV为模型,研究水生呼肠孤病毒的复制与致病机理具有一定的理论及实际意义.我们在对GCRV反应核心及体外转录研究中,已证实GCRV RNA聚合酶在病毒粒子中的存在及其位置[5];GCRV序列测定及定位结果显示,GCRV-VP2多肽为该病毒RNA聚合酶(RNA dependent RNA polymerase RdRp)[6,7].为了探讨草鱼呼肠孤病毒的侵染与宿主的相关性及复制机制,我们首次进行了该病毒RNA聚合酶基因(GCRV-RdRp)功能区序列在原核细胞中的表达研究,并得到高效表达融合蛋白.这一结果将为该酶的活性及特性分析提供实验依据.下面报道本研究结果.

Complete nucleotide sequence of the S10 genome segment of grass carp reovirus (GCRV)

Hemorrhagic disease, caused by the grass carp reovirus (GCRV), is one of the major diseases of grass carp in China. Little is known about the structure and function of the gene segments of this reovirus. The S10 genome segment of GCRV was cloned and the complete nucleotide sequence is reported here. The S10 is 909 nucleotides long and contains a large open reading frame (ORF) encoding a protein of 276 amino acids with a deduced molecular weight of approximately 29.7 kDa. Comparisons of the deduced amino acid sequence of GCRV S10 with those of other reoviruses revealed no significant homologies. However, GCRV S10 shared a putative zinc-finger sequence and a similar distribution of hydrophilic motifs with the outer capsid proteins encoded by Coho salmon aquareovirus (SCSV) S10, striped bass reovirus (SBRV) S10, and mammalian reovirus (MRV) S4. It was predicted that this segment gene encodes an outer capsid protein.     

Complete Genome Sequence of a Reovirus Isolated from Grass Carp,Indicating Different Genotypes of GCRV in China

A widespread grass carp hemorrhagic disease (GCHD) caused by grass carp reovirus (GCRV) has been known in China since 1983. A virulent reovirus strain, HZ08, was isolated from diseased grass carp in Zhejiang Province, China. We sequenced and analyzed the complete genome of strain HZ08 and compared it with published GCRV genome sequences, contributing to the evidence of several genotypes of GCRV in China.     

Bioinformatics of Recent Aqua- and Orthoreovirus Isolates from Fish: Evolutionary Gain or Loss of FAST and Fiber Proteins and Taxonomic Implications

Family Reoviridae, subfamily Spinareovirinae, includes nine current genera. Two of these genera, Aquareovirus and Orthoreovirus, comprise members that are closely related and consistently share nine homologous proteins. Orthoreoviruses have 10 dsRNA genome segments and infect reptiles, birds, and mammals, whereas aquareoviruses have 11 dsRNA genome segments and infect fish. Recently, the first 10-segmented fish reovirus, piscine reovirus (PRV), has been identified and shown to be phylogenetically divergent from the 11-segmented viruses constituting genus Aquareovirus. We have recently extended results for PRV by showing that it does not encode a fusion-associated small transmembrane (FAST) protein, but does encode an outer-fiber protein containing a long N-terminal region of predicted α-helical coiled coil. Three recently characterized 11-segmented fish reoviruses, obtained from grass carp in China and sequenced in full, are also divergent from the viruses now constituting genus Aquareovirus, though not to the same extent as PRV. In the current study, we reexamined the sequences of these three recent isolates of grass carp reovirus (GCRV)–HZ08, GD108, and 104–for further clues to their evolution relative to other aqua- and orthoreoviruses. Structure-based fiber motifs in their encoded outer-fiber proteins were characterized, and other bioinformatics analyses provided evidence against the presence of a FAST protein among their encoded nonstructural proteins. Phylogenetic comparisons showed the combination of more distally branching, approved Aquareovirus and Orthoreovirus members, plus more basally branching isolates GCRV104, GCRV-HZ08/GD108, and PRV, constituting a larger, monophyletic taxon not suitably recognized by the current taxonomic hierarchy. Phylogenetics also suggested that the last common ancestor of all these viruses was a fiber-encoding, nonfusogenic virus and that the FAST protein family arose from at least two separate gain-of-function events. In addition, an apparent evolutionary correlation was found between the gain or loss of NS-FAST and outer-fiber proteins among more distally branching members of this taxon.

Expression and identification of inclusion forming-related domain of NS80 nonstructural protein of grass carp reovirus

Grass carp reovirus (GCRV), a double stranded RNA virus that infects aquatic animals, often with disastrous effects, belongs to the genus Aquareovirus and family Reoviridea. Similar to other reoviruses, genome replication of GCRV in infected cells occurs in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, also called viral factories. Sequences analysis revealed the nonstructural protein NS80, encoded by GCRV segment 4, has a high similarity with uNS in MRV(Mammalian orthoreoviruses), which may be associated with viral factory formation. To understand the function of the uNS80 protein in virus replication, the initial expression and identification of the immunogenicity of the GCRV NS80 protein inclusion forming-related region (335.742) was investigated in this study. It is shown that the over-expressed fusion protein was produced by inducing with IPTG at 28oC. In addition, serum specific rabbit antibody was obtained by using super purified recombinant NS80(335.742) protein as antigen. Moreover, the expressed protein was able to bind to anti-his-tag monoclonal antibody (mouse) and NS80(335-742) specific rabbit antibody. Further western blot analysis indicates that the antiserum could detect NS80 or NS80C protein expression in GCRV infected cells. This data provides a foundation for further investigation of the role of NS80 in viral inclusion formation and virion assembly.     

Characterization of the complete genome segments from BmCPV-SZ, a novel Bombyx mori cypovirus 1 isolate

A novel Bombyx mori cypovirus 1 isolated from infected silkworm larvae and tentatively assigned as Bombyx mori cypovirus 1 isolate Suzhou (BmCPV-SZ). The complete nucleotide sequences of genomic segments S1-S10 from BmCPV-SZ were determined. All segments possessed a single open reading frame; however, bioinformatic evidence suggested a short overlapping coding sequence in S1. Each BmCPV-SZ segment possessed the conserved terminal sequences AGUAA and GUUAGCC at the 5' and 3' ends, respectively. The conserved A/G at the -3 position in relation to the AUG codon could be found in the BmCPV-SZ genome, and it was postulated that this conserved A/G may be the most important nucleotide for efficient translation initiation in cypoviruses (CPVs). Examination of the putative amino acid sequences encoded by BmCPV-SZ revealed some characteristic motifs. Homology searches showed that viral structural proteins VP1, VP3, and VP4 had localized homologies with proteins of Rice ragged stunt virus , a member of the genus Oryzavirus within the family Reoviridae. A phylogenetic tree based on RNA-dependent RNA polymerase sequences demonstrated that CPV is more closely related to Rice ragged stunt virus and Aedes pseudoscutellaris reovirus than to other members of Reoviridae, suggesting that they may have originated from common ancestors.     

Functional analyses of mammalian reovirus nonstructural protein μNS

Genome replication of reovirus occurs in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies called viral factories or viroplasms. The viral nonstructural protein μNS, encoded by genome segment M3, is not a component of mature virions, but is expressed to high levels in infected cells and is concentrated in the infected cell factory matrix. Recent studies have demonstrated that μNS plays a central role in forming the matrix of these structures, as well as in recruiting other components to them for putative roles in genome replication and particle assembly.

Molecular Characterization of Nonstructural Protein NS38 of Grass Carp Reovirus

Viral nonstructural proteins in both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses play important roles in viral replication. Protein NS38 of Grass carp reovirus (GCRV), has been deduced to be a non-structural protein, and, consistent with other reoviruses, is considered to cooperate with the NS80 protein in viral particle assembly. To investigate the molecular basis of the role of NS38, a complete protein was expressed in E.coli for the first time. It was found that there is a better expression of NS38 induced with ...
