A single 880-base-pair region within the genome of simian cytomegalovirus strain Colburn contains sequences that hybridize intensely with both human and mouse total genome DNA probes. This sequence was also found in a second simian cytomegalovirus isolate and was retained in both plaque-purified virus subclones and in plasmid DNA clones containing the SalI P fragment. Cleaved genomic DNAs from several mammalian species all exhibited strong dispersed hybridization with the SalI-P probes, and over 70% of the lambda clones in a mouse genomic library plus several selected clones containing globin, 45S rDNA, or 5S rDNA genes all formed hybrids with SalI-P. The appropriate region of cytomegalovirus SalI-P contains relatively A + T-rich unique sequences interrupted by three stretches of the simple alternating dinucleotides, (CA)15, (CA)22, and (CA)21, which we show to be responsible for most of the cell-virus homology. We conclude that discrete, tandemly repeated (CA) dinucleotide tracts capable of forming left-handed Z-DNA helices punctuate mammalian genomes at greater than 10(5) copies per cell and that three adjacent copies of what appear to be a family of interspersed repetitive elements containing these (CA)n stretches are carried in the genomes of simian cytomegaloviruses.  相似文献

The results of molecular hybridization experiments have demonstrated that the RNA genome of RD-114 virus has extensive nucleotide sequence homology with the RNA genome of Crandell virus, an endogenous type C virus of cats, but only limited homology with the RNA genomes of feline sarcoma virus and feline leukemia virus. The genomic RNAs of RD-114 virus and Crandell virus also had identical sedimentation coefficients of 50S. A structural rearrangement of genomic RNA did not exist within released RD-114 virions, whereas a structural rearrangement of genomic RNA did occur within feline sarcoma virions and feline leukemia virions after release from virus-producing cells.  相似文献

The genomes of three independent isolates of feline sarcoma virus (FeSV) were compared by molecular hybridization techniques. Using complementary DNAs prepared from two strains, SM- and ST-FeSV, common complementary DNA'S were selected by sequential hybridization to FeSV and feline leukemia virus RNAs. These DNAs were shown to be highly related among the three independent sarcoma virus isolates. FeSV-specific complementary DNAs were prepared by selection for hybridization by the homologous FeSV RNA and against hybridization by fline leukemia virus RNA. Sarcoma virus-specific sequences of SM-FeSV were shown to differ from those of either ST- or GA-FeSV strains, whereas ST-FeSV-specific DNA shared extensive sequence homology with GA-FeSV. By molecular hybridization, each set of FeSV-specific sequences was demonstrated to be present in normal cat cellular DNA in approximately one copy per haploid genome and was conserved throughout Felidae. In contrast, FeSV-common sequences were present in multiple DNA copies and were found only in Mediterranean cats. The present results are consistent with the concept that each FeSV strain has arisen by a mechanism involving recombination between feline leukemia virus and cat cellular DNA sequences, the latter represented within the cat genome in a manner analogous to that of a cellular gene.  相似文献

Five gibbon ape leukemia virus substrains (two from gibbons with lymphocytic leukemia and three from gibbons with myelogenous leukemia) were examined for unique genomic sequences specific for each form of leukemia. By using sequential adsorption procedures, the genome from each gibbon ape leukemia virus was fractionated into four sets of distinct nucleotide sequences. Based on their hybridization specificities toward DNAs of leukemic tissues, these sequences were designated as follows: (i) “COM,” (ii) “LYM” or “MYE,” (iii) “UNI,” and (iv) “UND.” The COM fraction represented sequences common to all of the viral genomes. The LYM fraction, which was isolated only from gibbon ape leukemia viruses associated with lymphocytic leukemia, represented genomic sequences associated with lymphocytic leukemia since the RNA hybridized at a 4- to 15-fold-higher rate to infected tissue DNA from lymphocytic leukemic gibbons than to infected tissue DNA from myelogenous leukemic gibbons. The MYE fraction, which was isolated only from gibbon ape leukemia viruses associated with myelogenous leukemia, represented genomic sequences associated with myelogenous leukemia since the RNA hybridized at a 5- to 15-fold-higher rate to infected tissue DNA from myelogenous leukemic gibbons than to infected tissue DNA from lymphocytic leukemic gibbons. The UNI fraction contained sequences unique to one virus substrain. The UND fraction contained sequences which varied depending upon the substrains involved in the adsorption procedures. These findings suggest that each gibbon ape leukemia virus examined in this study contains subgenomic sequences that are specifically identifiable only with the form of leukemia from which the virus was isolated.  相似文献

The genomic RNA of 6/94 virus, an agent isolated from the brains of multiple sclerosis patients, was studied for sequence homology by RNA-RNA hybridization with closely related Sendai virus and another paramyxovirus virus, Newcastle disease virus. It was found that the genomic RNA of 6/94 virus hybridizes equally as well to the virus-specific 18S RNA found in Sendai-infected cells as that of Sendai virus.  相似文献

The polyribosomal fraction from chicken embryo fibroblasts infected with B77 avian sarcoma virus contained 38S, 28S, and 21S virus-specific RNAs in which sequences identical to the 5'-terminal 101 bases of the 38S genome RNA were present. The only polyadenylic acid-containing RNA species with 5' sequences which was detectable in purified virions had a sedimentation coefficient of 38S. This evidence is consistent with the hypothesis that a leader sequence derived from the 5' terminus of the RNA is spliced to the bodies of the 28S and 21S mRNA's, both of which have been shown previously to be derived from the 3' terminal half of the 38S RNA. The entire 101-base 5' terminal sequence of the genome RNA appeared to be present in the majority of the subgenomic intracellular virus-specific mRNA's, as established by several different methods. First, the extent of hybridization of DNA complementary to the 5'-terminal 101 bases of the genome to polyadenylic acid-containing subgenomic RNA was similar to the extent of its hybridization to 38S RNA from infected cells and from purified virions. Second, the fraction of the total cellular polyadenylic acid-containing RNA with 5' sequences was similar to the fraction of RNA containing sequences identical to the extreme 3' terminus of the genome RNA when calculated by the rate of hybridization of the appropriate complementary DNA probes. This suggests that most intracellular virus-specific RNA molecules contain sequences identical to those present in the 5'-terminal 101 bases of the genome. Third, the size of most of the radioactively labeled DNA complementary to the 5'-terminal 101 bases of the genome remained unchanged after the probe was annealed to either intracellular 38S RNA or to various size classes of subgenomic RNA and the hybrids were digested with S1 nuclease and denatured with alkali. However, after this procedure some DNA fragments of lower molecular weight were present. This was not the case when the DNA complementary to the 5'-terminal 101 bases of the genome was annealed to 38S genome RNA. These results suggest that, although the majority of the intracellular RNA contains the entire 101-base 5'-terminal leader sequence, a small population of virus-specific RNAs exist that contain either a shortened 5' leader sequence or additional splicing in the terminal 101 bases.  相似文献

The 60-70S RNA of Mason-Pfizer virus (MPV) was iodinated in vitro and used in both direct and competitive molecular hybridization studies. MPV proviral sequences are present at a frequency of approximately one to two copies per haploid genome in the DNA of experimentally infected human cells. By nucleic acid competition hybridization, MPV RNA was found to be indistinguishable from the RNA of a virus (X381) isolated from a rhesus mammary gland and from RNA isolated from the cytoplasm of AO cells (Parks et al., 1973) and HeLa cells (Gelderblom et al., 1974), both previously reported to produce MPV-related particles. No homology was observed, however, between MPV RNA and the RNA, or the DNA, from two clones of HeLa cells obtained from the American Type Culture Collection. Hybridization of MPV 60-70S RNA to the DNA of normal tissues of humans and to the DNA of 11 other species revealed that MPV is not an endogenous virus of any of these species. Competition hybridization revealed no detectable sequence homology between the RNA of MPV and the RNAs of simian sarcoma virus, murine mammary tumor virus, murine leukemia virus, BUdR-induced guinea pig virus, or avian myeloblastosis virus. These nucleic acid studies substantiate previous ultrastructural and immunological findings that MPV and morphologically similar isolates constitute a distinct group of oncornavirus.  相似文献

We report here the complete genome sequence of a novel duck hepatitis A virus type 3 (DHAV-3) isolated from a dead Cherry Valley duckling in eastern China. The whole genomic nucleotide sequence and polyprotein amino acid sequence of the virus had higher homology with those of Chinese DHAV-3 isolates, medium homology with those of Korean DHAV-3 isolates, and the lowest homology with those of Vietnamese isolate DN2. The result indicated that the genetic evolution of DHAV-3 isolates had obvious geographical features.  相似文献

In this study, we determined the complete nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence of a primary isolate of rabies virus (SH06) obtained from the brain of a rabid dog. The overall length of the genome was 11 924 nucleotides. Comparison of the genomic sequence showed the homology of SH06 at nucleotide level with full-length genomes of reference vaccine strains ranged from 82.2% with the PV strain to 86.9% with the CTN strain. A full-length genome-based phylogenetic analysis was performed with sequences available from GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis of the complete genome sequences indicated that the SH06 exhibited the highest homology with rabies street virus BD06 and CTN vaccine strain originated from China.  相似文献

We examined 14 different feline leukemia virus proviruses from the productively infected human cell line RD(FeLV)-2 after cloning in the modified lambda vector Charon 4A. Each isolate was characterized by restriction digestion and Southern blot analysis. The DNA of each isolate was tested for competence to express virus after uptake by sensitive animal cells (transfection). All but one isolate contained an apparently complete provirus, but only four were infectious. Seven isolates (four noninfectious, three infectious) were studied by heteroduplexing followed by electron microscopy or by S1 nuclease treatment and gel electrophoresis. No regions of nonhomology between proviruses were detected by either criterion, and in no case did we observe homology between flanking sequences. Random shearing or removal of flanking sequences by S1 nuclease had no effect on the status of infectivity of the clones. Thus, we were unable to find molecular differences between infectious and noninfectious proviruses. Our data are consistent with either of the following hypotheses: (i) that there is a short host sequence which is essential as a promoter for virus expression; or (ii) that lack of infectivity is due to small mutations within the proviral genome.  相似文献

Complete Genomic Sequence of a Chinese Isolate of Duck Hepatitis Virus   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The complete genomic sequence of Duck hepatitis virus 1(DHV-1) ZJ-V isolate was sequenced and determined to be 7 691 nucleotides(nt) in length with a 5'-terminal un-translated region(UTR) of 626 nt and a 3'-terminal UTR of 315 nt(not including the poly(A) tail).One large open reading frame(ORF) was found within the genome(nt 627 to 7 373) coding for a polypeptide of 2 249 amino acids.Our data also showed that the poly(A) tail of DHV-1 has at least 22 A's.Sequence comparison revealed significant homology(from 91.9% to 95.7%) between the protein sequences of the ZJ-V isolate and those of 21 reference isolates.Although DHV-1 has been classified as an unassigned virus in the Picornaviridae family,its genome showed some unique characteristics.DHV-1 contains 3 copies of the 2A gene and only 1 copy of the 3B gene,and its 3'-NCR is longer than those of other picornaviruses.Phylogenetic analysis to do sequence homology based on the VP1 protein sequences showed that the ZJ-V isolate shares high sequence homology with the reported DHV-1 isolates(from 92.9% to 99.2%),indicating that DHV-1 is genetically stable.  相似文献

A complementary DNA clone corresponding to the 70 kDa subunit of soluble guanylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.2) of rat lung has been isolated. The primary structure of the cDNA consisted of 3063 nucleotides including a 1857-nucleotide coding region for 619 amino acids, and the calculated molecular weight was 70476. Blot hybridization of total poly(A)+RNAs from rat tissues detected a mRNA of about 3.4 kilobases. The amount of mRNA was abundant in lung, cerebrum and cerebellum, moderate in heart and kidney, and low in liver and muscle. Southern blot analysis of high molecular weight genomic DNA from rat liver indicated the presence of one gene in the rat haploid genome. The amino acid sequence of the 70 kDa subunit has partial homology with particulate guanylate cyclase from sea-urchin sperm, and protein phosphatase inhibitor I.  相似文献

The genomic structure of Marek's disease virus (MDV) is similar to those of the alphaherpesviruses herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2. Sequence analysis of the junction region between the long component (L) and the short component (S) revealed the existence of an a-like sequence, similar in structure to the a sequence of HSV-1. Further study revealed that the MDV genome contains five copies of the a-like sequence within the long terminal repeat region as well as in the short terminal repeat region. The junction between the L and S components was found to contain 10 copies of the a-like sequence. Within the a-like sequence, a structure homologous to the DR2 of HSV was found to contain 17 copies of the telomeric sequence, GGGGTTA. There appears to be little to no sequence homology between the HSV a sequence and the MDV a-like sequence; however, the strong physical homology to its counterpart in HSV-1 suggests that the MDV a-like sequence may have the same functional homology (the domain for cleavage/packaging of the DNA into the viral capsids and for genomic inversion) as well.  相似文献

The complete genomic sequence of Duck hepatitis virus 1 (DHV-1) ZJ-V isolate was sequenced and determined to be 7 691 nucleotides (nt) in length with a 5'-terminal un-translated region (UTR) of 626 nt and a 3'-terminal UTR of 315 nt (not including the poly(A) tail). One large open reading frame (ORF) was found within the genome (nt 627 to 7 373) coding for a polypeptide of 2 249amino acids. Our data also showed that the poly (A) tail of DHV-1 has at least 22 A's. Sequence comparison revealed significant homology (from 91.9% to 95.7%) between the protein sequences of the virus in the Picornaviridae family, its genome showed some unique characteristics. DHV-1 contains 3copies of the 2A gene and only 1 copy of the 3B gene, and its 3'-NCR is longer than those of other picornaviruses. Phylogenetic analysis to do sequence homology based on the VP1 protein sequences showed that the ZJ-V isolate shares high sequence homology with the reported DHV-1 isolates (from 92.9% to 99.2%), indicating that DHV-1 is genetically stable.  相似文献

The nucleic acid sequence relationship between mouse intracisternal type A-particles and type C and B viruses was examined by reciprocal complementary DNA-RNA hybridization; complementary DNAs prepared from the RNAs of intracisternal A-particles were hybridized with high-molecular-weight RNAs from a variety of murine tumor viruses, and complementary DNAs representing a variety of RNA tumor virus genomes were hybridized with the high-molecular-weight RNAs from A-particles. The criterion for homology between two types of virus was that the heterologous hybridization reaction occurs over the same RNA concentration range as the homologous reacton. The results of these hybridizations indicate that there are no major sequence homologies between the RNA of intracisternal A-particles and the RNA of representative members of type B and C viruses of Mus musculus.  相似文献

Three S genome specific sequences were isolated from Aegilops sect. sitopsis species using different experimental approaches. Two clones, UTV86 and UTV39, were isolated from a partial genomic library obtained from DNA of Aegilops sharonensis, whereas a third clone, UTV5, was isolated from Aegilops speltoides. The three clones were characterized by sequencing, analysis of methylation, and sequence organization and abundance in some Aegilops and Triticum species. The clones UTV39 and UTV5 belong to the same family of tandem repeated sequences and showed high homology with a sequence already present in nucleotide databases. The UTV86 clone from Ae. sharonensis corresponded to an interspersed low frequency repeated sequence and did not show any significant homology with reported sequences. Southern hybridization experiments, using the cloned sequences as probes, detected polymorphism in the restriction patterns of all the five Aegilops species in section sitopsis. Aegilops speltoides showed the most divergent hybridization pattern. A close relationship was detected between the S genome of Ae. speltoides and the G genome of the wild Triticum timopheevii. In situ hybridization revealed a telomeric and (or) subtelomeric location of the sequences UTV39 and UTV5.  相似文献

Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV) shares a number of properties with tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), the type species of the genus tospovirus within the family Bunyaviridae. INSV, however, differs from TSWV in plant host range and serology. In order to define the genomic structure and the taxonomic status of this TSWV-like virus, the nucleotide sequence of its genomic S RNA segment has been determined. The molecular data obtained demonstrate that, like TSWV, INSV has an ambisense S RNA molecule, encoding a non-structural protein in viral sense and the nucleocapsid protein in viral complementary sense. The level of nucleotide sequence homology between their S RNAs, as well as the divergence in amino acid sequence homology of their gene products, confirm previous conclusions from serological studies that INSV and TSWV represent distinct virus species within the newly created genus, tospovirus.  相似文献
