Synthesis of Newcastle disease virus polypeptides in a wheat germ cell-free system.

Discriminatory inhibition of protein synthesis in cell-free systems by vaccinia virus transcripts.

The effect of vaccinia virus early transcripts on cellular (globin, HeLa, Chinese hamster ovary) and viral (vaccinia, encephalomyocarditis) mRNA function was studied in reticulocyte and wheat germ cell-free protein-synthesizing systems. Vaccinia virus transcripts of two size classes (8-10 S and 4-7 S), generated in vitro by viral cores, inhibited function of cellular and encephalomyocarditis vi...

Regulation of brome mosaic virus gene expression by restriction of initiation of protein synthesis.

The translation of total and individual brome mosaic virus (BMV) RNAs was examined in a wheat germ cell-free system in the presence of various inhibitors. Inhibitors of the initiation of polypeptide synthesis, e.g., potassium ions, 7-methylguanosine 5' -monophosphate, and aurintricarboxylic acid, were shown not only to inhibit overall BMV protein synthesis but also to change the ratio of BMV po...

Immune response of chickens to four lentogenic strains of Newcastle disease virus propagated in lamb kidney cell cultures

Comparison of pathogenicity and immunogenicity of two strains (TCND and Montana) of Newcastle disease virus propagated in four tissue cell types

Immunogenicity of commercial, formaldehyde and binary ethylenimine inactivated Newcastle disease virus vaccines in specific pathogen free chickens

Newcastle disease (ND) is one of the most important diseases that affect birds; the epizootic nature of the disease has caused severe economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. In this experiment ND virus (NDV) was inactivated by two different chemicals binary ethylenimine (BEI) and formaldehyde. Formaldehyde was used at 0.1%, while BEI was used at concentrations of 1 to 4 mM. NDV inact...
