Sequence comparison of the 5' end of mRNA 3 from transmissible gastroenteritis virus and porcine respiratory coronavirus.

چکیده
Analysis of porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) mRNA species indicated a deletion in mRNA 3 of PRCV. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to clone the 5' end of mRNA 3 from PRCV for comparison with the equivalent region in TGEV. Small deletions were observed within and around the PRCV sequence equivalent to the putative open reading frame (ORF) ORF-3a identified in TGEV. The potential RNA polymerase-leader complex binding site (leader RNA binding site), ACTAAAC, found upstream of ORF-3a in TGEV, was absent from the PRCV genome but a potential site was found in the PRCV genome upstream of a gene equivalent to TGEV ORF-3b. PCR analysis, using primers corresponding to sequences within the ORF-3b gene and the leader RNA sequence, confirmed that the leader RNA binding site was upstream of a gene equivalent to TGEV ORF-3b on PRCV mRNA 3 but upstream of ORF-3a on TGEV mRNA 3. The presence of the new leader RNA binding site would be responsible for generating the smaller mRNA 3 species found in PRCV-infected cells.

Four new porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) isolates were genetically characterized. Subgenomic mRNA patterns and the nucleotide sequences of the 5' ends of the S genes, the open reading frame (ORF) 3/3a genes, and the ORF 3-1/3b genes of these PRCV isolates were determined and compared with those of other PRCV and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) isolates. The S, ORF 3/3a, and OR...

The genome organization of porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV), a newly recognized agent which has a close antigenic relationship to the enteropathogenic transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), was studied. Genomic RNA from cell-cultured PRCV (French isolate RM4) was used to produce cDNA clones covering the genomic 3' end to the start of the spike (S) glycoprotein gene (7519 nucleotides)...

The genome and transcriptional pattern of a newly identified respiratory variant of transmissible gastroenteritis virus were analyzed and compared with those of classical enterotropic transmissible gastroenteritis virus. The transcriptional patterns of the two viruses indicated that differences occurred in RNAs 1 and 2(S) and that RNA 3 was absent in the porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) v...

We have analysed the organization of the 3' end of the genomic RNA of canine coronavirus (CCV), a virus which has a close antigenic relationship to transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) and feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). Genomic RNA isolated from CCV strain Insavc-1-infected A72 cells was used to generate a cDNA library. Overlapping clon...
