sequence and phylogenetic analysis of nucleoprotein gene in iranian h9n2 avian influenza viruses

چکیده
objective: survey of molecular characterization of nucleoprotein gene of h9n2 avian influenza viruses and determination of the genetic relationship of iranian h9n2 viruses and other asian viruses. materials and methods: the nucleoprotein (np) genes from 4 isolates of h9n2 viruses isolated from commercial chickens in iran during 2008-2009 were amplified by rt-pcr method and sequenced. nucleotide sequences (orf) of the np genes were used for phylogenetic tree construction. results: nucleotide sequence analysis of the np gene showed that the iranian virus isolates did not exhibit insertions or deletions within nucleoprotein (np) gene as compare with their prototype a/turkey/winconsin/66; however numerous point mutations were occurred in the gene length of these viruses similar to the previous iranian strains. nucleotide sequence analysis showed that these isolates are very closely related (96/7-99/6) and shared a homology of 91/9-92/3% and 91/5-92% with 2 human isolates a/hk/1073/99 and a/hk/2108/2003, respectively. phylogenetic analysis of the np gene showed that all the np genes of the iranian h9n2 viruses fall into a single group within a g1-like sublineage which had contributed as donor of six internal genes to h5n1 a highly pathogenic avian influenza. conclusions: the current study indicated that the np gene of h9n2 influenza viruses circulating in iran during the past years were well conserved. it seems that the differences between these iranian virus isolates are the result of accumulation of point mutations among them.

Sixteen avian influenza (AI) H9N2 viruses were isolated from disease outbreaks in different parts of Iranduring (1998–2001). These AI isolates were used for pathogenicity, haemagglutinin (HA) gene variation andphylogenetic analysis. Results in both pathogenicity tests and HA gene cleavage site sequence detectionrepresented a non-highly pathogenic feature for all Iranian AI isolates studied. The...

Influenza A viruses possesses two virion surface glycoproteins including haemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). The NA plays an important role in viral replication and promotes virus release from infected cells and facilitates virus spread throughout the body. To find out any genomic changes that might be occurred on NA gene of avian influenza circulating viruses, we have genetically analy...

BACKGROUND: The H9N2 subtype of avian influenzaviruses (AIVs) has been isolated in multiple avian species inmany European, Asian, African and American countries. Sincethe first outbreak of H9N2 virus in Iran in 1998, this virus haswidely circulated throughout the country, resulting in majoreconomic losses in chicken flocks. Several amino acids in thevirus ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex includi...
