The complete nucleotide sequence of the phosphoprotein (P) gene of the Yamagata-1 strain of a defective subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) virus was determined. Comparison with the P gene of the Edmonston strain of measles virus (MV) revealed 44 differences of which 23 nucleotides substitutions were identical with those revealed between other SSPE viruses and MV (Cattaneo et al. (1989) Virology 173, 415-425). The consensus sequence of the G insertion site was completely conserved, whereas mRNAs with one or three non-templated G residue insertions were found in addition to the mRNA of the exact genome copy. As a result of the frameshift downstream of the site of G insertion, the cysteine-rich V protein was predicted from the one G-inserted mRNA besides the P and C proteins predicted from the genome-copied mRNA. 相似文献

Most subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) viruses, including our Osaka-1, -2, and -3 strains isolated in Osaka, have shown negative hemadsorption (HAD) by African green monkey red blood cells. This property has been thought to be characteristic of SSPE virus as compared to the positive reaction of the standard Edmonston strain of measles virus (MV). However, this assumption has become quite obscure because MV mutates frequently at the genetic level during its multiplication and also because recent field strains isolated by lymphoblastoid cell lines have shown negative HAD. To investigate the above issue, the nucleotide sequences of the hemagglutinin (H) genes from SSPE virus Osaka-1, -2, or -3 strains were compared to those of various MV field strains isolated in Osaka by Vero cells. The H gene sequences of three SSPE strains were relatively conserved without such biased hypermutation as had been observed in the matrix (M) gene of three SSPE strains. However, this analysis of the H gene sequence of the SSPE viruses enabled us to deduce possible progenitor MVs, which are in agreement with the deduction from the M gene analysis we reported previously. The HAD of Vero cells transfected with the cloned H cDNAs from the SSPE strains and their progenitors suggested that negative HAD of the SSPE viruses has been maintained as one of original properties of the progenitor MVs rather than having been acquired as an altered one during long-term persistent infection in the brains of patients with SSPE. 相似文献

Generation of recombinant adenovirus expressing siRNA against the L mRNA of measles virus and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis virus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by prolonged persistent infection of the central nervous system with a measles virus (MV) mutant called SSPE virus. At present, there is no effective treatment to completely cure SSPE and development of a new therapeutic measure(s) against this fatal slow virus infection is needed. We previously reported that replication of MV and SSPE virus was effectively inhibited by small interfering RNA (siRNA), either chemically synthetic or plasmid-driven ones, that were targeted against different sequences of the mRNA for the L protein of MV. In this study, we have generated recombinant adenovirus expressing the siRNAs (rAd-siRNA-MV-L2, -L4 and -L5) and demonstrated that these rAd-siRNAs efficiently inhibited replication of MV and SSPE virus in a dose-dependent manner. Due to their high capacity for gene delivery to nerve cells and the potential to inhibit SSPE virus replication, the rAd-siRNAs could be a good candidate for a novel therapeutic measure against SSPE. 相似文献

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a lethal disease induced by the persistence of measles virus in the human brain. In many SSPE cases, the viral matrix (M) protein cannot be detected; in others, M proteins of the expected size are found and sequence analysis of M cDNAs has confirmed that the reading frames are intact, showing only several missense mutations. To determine whether these alterations result in nonfunctional proteins, we have replaced the M gene of an infectious full-length genomic cDNA (from vaccine strain Edmonston) with different M genes derived from four patients with SSPE. One of the SSPE M genes tested proved to be functionally competent, giving rise to a virus yielding titers similar to those of viruses containing the M gene from control lytic strains. The other three SSPE M genes were not functionally competent in the same test. In all three cases, the inactivating changes resided in the carboxyl-terminal half of the M protein, as shown by the exchange of either of the two genes halves. In summary, mutational M gene alterations, which either prevent synthesis of M protein altogether or only allow synthesis of nonfunctional M protein, have been detected by us and by others in 9 of 10 SSPE cases. The one functional M gene appears to be an exception to the rule, indicating that M gene alteration might not be an absolute requirement for disease development. 相似文献
