Infectious bursal disease virus is an icosahedral polyploid dsRNA virus

Infectious bursal disease virus is an icosahedral polyploid dsRNA virus.

Viruses are a paradigm of the economy of genome resources, reflected in their multiplication strategy and for their own structure. Although there is enormous structural diversity, the viral genome is always enclosed within a proteinaceous coat, and most virus species are haploid; the only exception to this rule are the highly pleomorphic enveloped viruses. We performed an in-depth characterizat...

Characterization of a Highly Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

The Characteristics of an Ovine Lymphoid Cell-Line sensitive to Vaccinal Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Strain

Infectious bursal disease (IBD), also known as Gumboro disease, is a globally well-known disease with a significant socio-economic effect. For control of IBD, several commercial egg- and cell-based vaccines are prepared. The cell-based IBD vaccines are significantly cost-effective; however, it is essential to confirm their safety and efficacy. The main cell line used to product the cell-based I...

Vaccination of Chicks with an Experimental Oil-emulsion Vaccine against Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

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...
