Molecular characterization of recent Iranian infectious bronchitis virus isolates based on S2 protein gene
Authors
Abstract:
Background: Avian infectious bronchitis (IB), with avianinfectious bronchitis virus (IBV) as the causing agent, is a ubiquitous endemicdisease of the chicken with devastating effects on its industry. A viralmembrane surface protein called S notonly induces neutralizing antibodies but also plays an important role in virusbinding and entry to host cells. Technically, S1 protein gene sequencing alsohelps greatly in IBV genotyping. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study wasto characterize Iranian IBV based on S2 gene. METHODS: After RT-PCRamplification, the S2 gene of nine Iranian IBV isolates were sequenced and thencompared with reference strains. RESULTS: The isolates were classifiedinto genotype I as Massachusetts like IB Vs, genotype VII which clustered intotwo branches, VIIa (IS-1494 like IB viruses), and VIIb, and was related to QX-like viruses and Genotype VIII as 793/B like IBVs. CONCLUSIONS: As faras we know, this is the first S2-based classification study on Iranian IBVisolates providing a firm experimental basis to correlate with genotypiccharacterization

full textFull-length Characterization of S1 Gene of Iranian QX Avian Infectious Bronchitis Virus Isolates, 2015
Background and Aims: Avian infectious bronchitis (IB) has prevalent in the most chicken farms during recent years, in spite of the IB vaccination program which has been widely performed in Iran. To better understand the molecular epidemiology of IBV in Iran, the full length sequences of S1 gene of Iranian QX IBVs were determined and phylogenetic analysis was done using some sequences of IBV. M...

Sequences and Phylogenetic Analysis of Envelope (E) Gene of Iranian Infectious Bronchitis Virus Isolates in Iran
Background and Aims: Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is the etiological agent of infectious bronchitis (IB), which is an acute and highly contagious disease of the respiratory and sometimes the urogenital tracts of chickens. In Iran, the disease has been identified in chicken flocks with serological and virus isolation methods. Gene 3c (E) encode envelop (small membrane) protein. For envelope...

Chicken infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) causes severe respiratory and renal dysfunction in chickens. In the present study, we used reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to amplify the nucleocapsid (N) protein gene of strain Massachusetts (Mass) H120 of IBV that is commonly used in the vaccine production in Iran. The PCR product with the expected size of 1.2 kb was cloned in...
