PPEY motif within the rabies virus (RV) matrix protein is essential for efficient virion release and RV pathogenicity.
Late (L) domains containing the highly conserved sequence PPXY were first described for retroviruses, and later research confirmed their conservation and importance for efficient budding of several negative-stranded RNA viruses. Rabies virus (RV), a member of the Rhabdoviridae family, contains the sequence PPEY (amino acids 35 to 38) within the N terminus of the matrix (M) protein, but the func...
متن کاملCloning and Expression of Rabies Virus Glycoprotein Gene into Eukaryotic System
Background and Aims: The aim of this study was cloning and expression of rabies virus glycoprotein by a eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) in BSR cell line. This construct might be used for a potential DNA vaccine. Materials and Methods: Glycoprotein gene was synthesized and cloned into pBluescript vector and then sub cloned into eukaryotic expression vector (pcDNA3.1(+)). After verifica...
متن کاملPathogenicity of different rabies virus variants inversely correlates with apoptosis and rabies virus glycoprotein expression in infected primary neuron cultures.
The mouse-adapted rabies virus strain CVS-24 has stable variants, CVS-B2c and CVS-N2c, which differ greatly in their pathogenicity for normal adult mice and in their ability to infect nonneuronal cells. The glycoprotein (G protein), which has previously been implicated in rabies virus pathogenicity, shows substantial structural differences between these variants. Although prior studies have ide...
متن کاملBTN25-RV-Hayashizaki R4.indd
Cap analysis gene expression (CAGE) was introduced in 2003 as a method to determine transcription start sites on a genome-wide scale by isolating and sequencing short sequence tags originating from the 5′ end of RNA transcripts (1). Mapping these tags back to the reference genome identifies the transcription start sites from which the transcripts originated. CAGE relies on a cap-trapper system ...
متن کاملThe rabies virus glycoprotein receptor p75NTR is not essential for rabies virus infection.
Rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG) is known to be the only factor that mediates rabies infection. The neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)), through its cysteine-rich domain 1, is a specific receptor for RVG and neutralizes virus infectivity, but its role in virus infection has remained obscure. We used adult mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons as a model to study the role of p75(NTR) in RV infect...
