Nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding the matrix protein of Newcastle disease virus.

چکیده
The nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding the matrix (M) protein of the Beaudette C strain of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) has been determined from overlapping cDNA clones. Control sequences typical of paramyxovirus mRNA start and polyadenylation signals have been identified. Assuming that the M gene starts and finishes at these sequences, the M gene is 1241 nucleotides long and encodes one long open reading frame of 364 amino acids, corresponding to a polypeptide of molecular weight 39605, in good agreement with estimates from SDS gels. The M protein has an amino acid sequence that is both hydrophobic and highly basic. The NDV M protein has sequence homologies to the M proteins of Sendai, measles, canine distemper and respiratory syncytial viruses.

Newcastle Disease (ND) is a major viral disease in Indonesia. It is an RNA virus belongs to Paramyxovirinae. It is well known that RNA virus is easily to mutate. In some cases, this mutation could generate virulence alteration. It is noted that mutation of NDV which has avirulent amino acid sequence on the cleavage site, could mutate to be virulent Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV). It is needed to...
