Identification and characterization of bovine herpesvirus type 5 glycoprotein H gene and gene products.
Bovine herpesvirus type 5 (BHV-5) is the causative agent of a fatal meningo-encephalitis in calves and is closely related to BHV-1 which causes infectious bovine rhinotracheitis. The gene encoding BHV-5 glycoprotein gH was sequenced. A high degree of conservation was found between BHV-1 and BHV-5 deduced gH amino acid sequences (86. 4%), which is also observed for all alphaherpesvirus gH sequen...
متن کاملIdentification of gene products encoded by the latency-related gene of bovine herpesvirus 1.
Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1) establishes a latent infection in sensory ganglionic neurons of infected animals. Expression of latency-related (LR) gene products is controlled by a 980-bp fragment (LR promoter). DNA sequence analysis revealed that two major open reading frames (ORFs) are in the LR gene. Antibodies directed against both ORFs were generated in rabbits by using synthetic peptides. A...
متن کاملSelection and characterization of brivudin resistant bovine herpesvirus type 5
Bovine herpesvirus type 5 (BoHV-5) is the agent of meningoencephalitis, an important disease of cattle in South America. The neuropathogenesis of BoHV-5 infection is poorly understood and most previous research focused on the role of envelope glicoproteins in neurovirulence. Thymidine kinase (TK) is a viral enzyme necessary for virus replication in neurons and, therefore, represents a potential...
متن کاملGenetic characterization of complete open reading frame of glycoprotein C gene of bovine herpesvirus 1
Aim: To characterize one of the major glycoprotein genes viz., glycoprotein C (gC; UL44, unique long region 44) of bovine herpesvirus 1(BoHV1) of Indian origin at genetic and phylogenetic level. Materials and Methods: A bovine herpesvirus 1 isolate viz., (BoHV1/IBR 216 II/ 1976/ India) maintained at Division of Virology, IVRI, Mukteswar was used for the current study. The DNA was extracted usin...
