The Genome of Pieris rapae Granulovirus.
Pieris rapae granulovirus (PrGV) can infect and kill larvae of Pieris rapae, a worldwide and important pest of mustard family crops. The PrGV genome consists of 108,592 bp, is AT rich (66.8%), and is most structurally and organizationally similar to the Choristoneura occidentalis granulovirus genome. Of the predicted 120 open reading frames (ORFs), 32 genes specifically occurred in GVs, includi...
متن کاملEstablishment of Cell Lines from Pieris rapae Embryos: Characterization and Susceptibility to Baculoviruses
Many embryonic Pieris rapae (imported cabbageworm) cell lines were established from 24-hr-old P. rapae eggs. Some were characterized by growth curve analysis and by malate and lactate dehydrogenase isozyme comparison with other lepidopteran and mosquito cell lines. Most of the cell lines were screened for susceptibility to P. rapae granulosis virus using the peroxidase antiperoxidase assay and ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a Cotesia rubecula bracovirus gene expressed in the lepidopteran Pieris rapae.
Polydnaviruses are endogenous particles that are crucial for the survival of endoparasitoid wasps, providing active suppression of the immune function of the lepidopteran host in which wasp larvae develop. The Cotesia rubecula bracovirus (CrBV) is unique in that only four gene products are detected in larval host (Pieris rapae) tissues and expression of CrBV genes is transient, occurring betwee...
متن کاملCell-free synthesis and characterization of a novel cytotoxic pierisin-like protein from the cabbage butterfly Pieris rapae.
Pierisin-like proteins comprise a growing family of ADP-ribosyltransferases expressed in various species of white butterflies. The prototype pierisin-1 from the cabbage butterfly, Pieris rapae, was identified as a potent apoptosis-inducing agent, acting on various types of carcinoma cell lines by mono-ADP-ribosylation of DNA. The characterization of pierisin-like proteins is hampered by its pot...
متن کاملMayolenes: labile defensive lipids from the glandular hairs of a caterpillar (Pieris rapae).
Larvae of the European cabbage butterfly, Pieris rapae (Pieridae), are beset with glandular hairs, bearing droplets of a clear oily secretion at their tip. The fluid consists primarily of a series of chemically labile, unsaturated lipids, the mayolenes, which are derived from 11-hydroxylinolenic acid. In bioassays with the ant Crematogaster lineolata, the secretion was shown to be potently dete...
