Specificity of the DNA product of the C-type virus RNA-dependent DNA polymerase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The specificity of the DNA product of the RNA-dependent DNA polymerase found in C-type virions was analyzed by reciprocal hybridization with RNA from viruses of mouse, hamster, cat, and viper. These tests revealed a clear species specificity for the DNA product with no detectable interspecies hybridization.

Localization of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 DNA in Latently Infected BALB/c Mice Neurons Using in situ Polymerase Chain Reaction
Background: Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) establishes a lifelong latent infection in neurons following primary infection. The existence of latent HSV-1 DNA in the trigeminal ganglia of infected BALB/c mice was examined using a direct in situ PCR technique, based on Digoxigenin-11-dUTP detection system with anti-digoxigenin-peroxidase and 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB) substrate. Methods: Eig...
متن کاملDetection of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus in Bovine Semen Using Nested-PCR
A rapid and sensitive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nested-PCR were used to detect bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 (BVDV-1) in bull semen. Selected primers could amplify a part of the 5´UTR of the BVDV genome. A 294 bp DNA fragment was amplified and specificity of the results was confirmed by direct sequencing of the PCR product. Prior to RNA extraction, the seminal...
متن کاملPolymerase chain reaction for the detection and differentiation of Marek’s disease virus strains MDV-1 and HVT
Marek’s disease (MD) is a lymphoproliferative disease of chickens characterized by lymphocyticinfiltration of various organs. The present study was an attempt to use polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tooptimize a rapid and reliable assay for detection of MDV genome. Detection of serotype 1 of MDV (MDV-1)was confirmed by presence of a 200 bp DNA fragment as a PCR product. Differentiation of MDV-1 ...

Abstract : Avian influenza virus (AIV) infection is a major cause of influenza mortality in birds and can cause human mortality and morbidity. Although the risk of infection with avian influenza virus (AIV) is generally low for most people, the pathogenic virus can cross the species barrier and acquires the ability to infect and be transmitted among the human population; therefore the ra...

Invasive aspergillosis (1 is a life-threatening condition in immunocompromised patients. An early diagnosis is of great importance because early treatment may resolve this potentially fatal infection. Recently, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used successfully in detecting specific DNA of several pathogen. In this study, nested PCR was used to detect DNA specific for A!.pergiflus s...
