Open reading frame 2 of porcine circovirus type 2 encodes a major capsid protein.
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2), a single-stranded DNA virus associated with post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome of swine, has two potential open reading frames, ORF1 and ORF2, greater than 600 nucleotides in length. ORF1 is predicted to encode a replication-associated protein (Rep) essential for replication of viral DNA, while ORF2 contains a conserved basic amino acid sequence at the N te...
متن کاملMapping of the nuclear localization signals in open reading frame 2 protein from porcine circovirus type 1.
Porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1) contains two major open reading frames encoding the replication-associated proteins and the major structural capsid (Cap) protein. PCV1 Cap has an N-terminus carrying several potential monopartite or bipartite nuclear localization signals (NLS). The contribution of these partially overlapping motifs to nuclear importing was identified by expression of mutated PC...
متن کاملStructure analysis of capsid protein of Porcine circovirus type 2 from pigs with systemic disease.
Economic losses with high mortality rate associated with Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is reported worldwide. PCV2 commercial vaccine was introduced in 2006 in U.S. and in 2008 in Brazil. Although PCV2 vaccines have been widely used, cases of PCV2 systemic disease have been reported in the last years. Eleven nursery or fattening pigs suffering from PCV2 systemic disease were selected from ei...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of porcine circovirus type 2 capsid protein targeting to different subcellular compartments.
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is known to be associated with post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), an emerging disease in swine. The development of effective vaccines against PCV2 infection has been accepted as an important strategy in the prophylaxis of PMWS, and a DNA vaccine expressing the major immunogenic capsid (Cap) protein of PCV2 is considered to be a promising candida...
متن کاملEpitope mapping of the major capsid protein of type 2 porcine circovirus (PCV2) by using chimeric PCV1 and PCV2.
Type 2 porcine circovirus (PCV2) is associated with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs, whereas the genetically related type 1 PCV (PCV1) is nonpathogenic. In this study, seven monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against PCV2-ORF2 capsid protein were generated, biologically characterized, and subsequently used to map the antigenic sites of PCV2 capsid protein by using infectious PCV DN...
