Complete genome of a dengue virus serotype 4 strain from Amazonas, Brazil

Dengue virus (DENV) infections represent a significant concern for public health worldwide, being considered as the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus regarding the number of reported cases. In this study, we report the complete genome sequencing of a DENV serotype 4 isolate, genotype II, obtained in the city of Manaus, directly from the serum sample, applying Ion Torrent sequencing technology. The use of a massive sequencing technology allowed the detection of two variable sites, one in the coding region for the viral envelope protein and the other in the nonstructural 1 coding region within viral populations.     

Complete sequencing of potato virus X new strain genome and construction of viral vector for production of target proteins in plants

The complete nucleotide sequence of the genome of a new potato virus X (PVX) strain Tula isolated by us has been determined. Based on comparison of the PVX Tula nucleotide sequence with the sequences of 12 other PVX strains, this strain was assigned to the European cluster of PVX strains. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the same phylogeny for both full genome sequences and nucleotide sequences of polymerase and coat protein genes, suggesting that the PVX evolution did not involve recombination between different strains. The full-size cDNA copy of the PVX Tula genome was cloned and the accumulation of the viral coat protein in infected Nicotiana benthamiana was shown to be about twofold higher than for the PVX strain UK3. Based on the PVX Tula genome, a new vector which contained the target gene instead of the removed triple transport gene block and the coat protein gene has been constructed for expression of target proteins in plants. The productivity of the new vector was about 1.5-2-fold higher than the productivity of the vector of the same structure based on the standard PVX strain genome. The new viral vector can be used for superproduction of recombinant proteins in plants.     

Generation of a non‐transmissive Borna disease virus vector lacking both matrix and glycoprotein genes

Borna disease virus (BoDV), a prototype of mammalian bornavirus, is a non‐segmented, negative strand RNA virus that often causes severe neurological disorders in infected animals, including horses and sheep. Unique among animal RNA viruses, BoDV transcribes and replicates non‐cytopathically in the cell nucleus, leading to establishment of long‐lasting persistent infection. This striking feature of BoDV indicates its potential as an RNA virus vector system. It has previously been demonstrated by our team that recombinant BoDV (rBoDV) lacking an envelope glycoprotein (G ) gene develops persistent infections in transduced cells without loss of the viral genome. In this study, a novel non‐transmissive rBoDV, rBoDV ΔMG, which lacks both matrix (M ) and G genes in the genome, is reported. rBoDV‐ΔMG expressing green fluorescence protein (GFP), rBoDV ΔMG‐GFP, was efficiently generated in Vero/MG cells stably expressing both BoDV M and G proteins. Infection with rBoDV ΔMG‐GFP was persistently maintained in the parent Vero cells without propagation within cell culture. The optimal ratio of M and G for efficient viral particle production by transient transfection of M and G expression plasmids into cells persistently infected with rBoDV ΔMG‐GFP was also demonstrated. These findings indicate that the rBoDV ΔMG‐based BoDV vector may provide an extremely safe virus vector system and could be a novel strategy for investigating the function of M and G proteins and the host range of bornaviruses.

Complete genome sequence of garlic latent virus,a member of the carlavirus family

The complete genome sequence of the garlic latent virus (GLV) has been determined. The whole GLV genome consists of 8,353 nucleotides, excluding the 3'-end poly(A)+ tail, and contains six open-reading frames (ORFs). Putative proteins that were encoded by the reading frames contain the motifs that were conserved in carlavirus-specific RNA replicases, NTP-dependent DNA helicases, two viral membrane-bound proteins, a viral coat protein, and a zinc-finger. Overall, the GLV genome shows structural features that are common in carlaviruses. An in vitro translation analysis revealed that the zinc-finger protein is not produced as a transframe protein with the coat protein by ribosomal frameshifting. A Northern blot analysis showed that GLV-specific probes hybridized to garlic leaf RNA fragments of about 2.6 and 1.5 kb long, in addition to the 8.5 kb whole genome. The two subgenomic RNAs might be encapsidated into smaller viral particles. In garlic plants, 700 nm long flexuous rod-shaped virus particles were observed in the immunoelectron microscopy using polyclonal antibodies against the GLV coat proteins.     

Heat stress is a potent stimulus for enhancing rescue efficiency of recombinant Borna disease virus

Recently developed vector systems based on Borna disease virus (BDV) hold promise as platforms for efficient and stable gene delivery to the central nervous system (CNS). However, because it currently takes several weeks to rescue recombinant BDV (rBDV), an improved rescue procedure would enhance the utility of this system. Heat stress reportedly enhances the rescue efficiency of other recombinant viruses. Here, heat stress was demonstrated to increase the amount of BDV genome in persistently BDV‐infected cells without obvious cytotoxicity. Further analyses suggested that the effect of heat stress on BDV infection is not caused by an increase in the activity of BDV polymerase. More cells in which BDV replication occurs were obtained in the initial phase of rBDV rescue by using heat stress than when it was not used. Thus, heat stress is a useful improvement on the published rescue procedure for rBDV. The present findings may accelerate the practical use of BDV vector systems in basic science and the clinic and thus enable broader adoption of this viral vector, which is uniquely suited for gene delivery to the CNS.
