First Complete Genomic Sequence of a Rabies Virus from the Republic of Tajikistan Obtained Directly from a Flinders Technology Associates Card
نویسندگان
چکیده
A brain homogenate derived from a rabid dog in the district of Tojikobod, Republic of Tajikistan, was applied to a Flinders Technology Associates (FTA) card. A full-genome sequence of rabies virus (RABV) was generated from the FTA card directly without extraction, demonstrating the utility of these cards for readily obtaining genetic data.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SURVEY OF DIFFERENT RABIES VIRUS STRAINS IN IRAN
Rabies is widespread in all provinces of Iran. This study presents an investigation by a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique for the purpose of rabies diagnosis and also Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) for determination of the type of the rabies virus. In addition, PCR proves to be a powerful tool for molecular epidemiology studies allowing analysis of the infecting strain...
متن کاملComplete Genomic Sequence of a Strain of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus from Iran
Background and Aims: Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is one of the most destructive viruses of tomato that leads to reduced tomato yield up to 100% in tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, the complete sequence of TYLCV isolate from Hormozgan province, Iran and its recombination evsent was determined. Methods: TYLCV infected tomato was collected from Hormozgan province. Total D...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of a Rabies Virus Isolated from a Human in Central African Republic
To validate the feasibility of using next-generation sequencing in an African context, the complete genome of a rabies virus isolated from a human patient was obtained by high-throughput sequencing after virus isolation in mice and random unbiased amplification. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that this virus belongs to the Africa II clade.

Rabies virus nucleoprotein (N protein) encapsidates genomic RNA of the virus and forms the viral ribonucleoprotein complex. These N proteins represent highly organized structures which activate proliferation of B cells and production antibodies against the N protein. In addition to the B cell, the rabies virus N protein has been shown to induce potent T helper cell responses resulting in a long...

Symptomatic grapevine samples were collected from vineyards in Zanjan province to detect Grapevine virus A. Total RNA was extracted from symptomatic leaf samples and subjected to cDNA synthesis using random hexamer primers. Then, a DNA fragment around 800 bp including the complete coat protein (CP) gene was amplified from nine out of 57 samples by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using specific ...
