Infectious bursal disease virus in poultry: current status and future prospects

Characterization of a Highly Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

Current Status and Future Prospects

This article reviews recent advances in genomics and informatics relevant to cardiovascular research. In particular, we review the status of (1) whole genome sequencing efforts in human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, and dog; (2) the development of data mining and analysis tools; (3) the launching of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Programs for Genomics Applications and Proteomics Initia...

Expression, purification and glycosylation analysis of chicken infectious bursal disease virus VP2 in yeast

Infectious bursal disease (IBD), a highly contagious and devastating disease in young chicken, is causedby infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). To improve the immunogenicity of recombinant IBDV subunitvaccine, an attempt was made to find a new way to prepare IBD vaccine containing glycosylated mVP2antigen. Firstly, IBDV mVP2 gene (with a nucleic acid sequence encoding B cell epitope of IBDV(...

Cloning and secretory expression of VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus in eukaryotic cells

VP2 gene coding region of a vaccinal strain (D78) of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) was clonedin a eukaryotic expression vector, pSec Tag2A. The gene was placed downstream of Ig κ chain leadersequence, under the control of human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) immediate early enhancer and promoter. Theconstruct pSec Tag2A-VP2 was transfected in COS-7 cell line and the expression and secretion of...

Conformational analysis of Infectious bursal disease virus

Aim: This study was designed to develop peptide analogs of Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) virus VP5 protein segment having cell penetrating ability to improve their interaction with cargo molecule (Nucleic acid) without affecting the backbone conformation. Materials and Methods: IBDV VP5 protein segment designated as RATH peptide were synthesized using solid phase peptide synthesis and their s...
