canine distemper virus (cdv) creates a very contagious viral multi-systemic canine distemper (cd) disease that affects most species of carnivora order. the virus is genetically heterogeneous, particularly in section of the hemagglutinin (h) gene. sequence analysis of the h gene can be useful to investigate distinction of various lineages related to geographical distribution and cdv molecular ep...

background: influenza virus is the major cause of lower respiratory tract illnesses on the worldwide. vaccination can be an effective tool to prevent its outbreak. highly conserved viral nucleoprotein is an effective vaccine candidate to provide heterosubtypic immunity, offering resistance against various influenza virus strains. m aterials and methods: in present research np gene was inserted ...

objective: survey of molecular characterization of nucleoprotein gene of h9n2 avian influenza viruses and determination of the genetic relationship of iranian h9n2 viruses and other asian viruses. materials and methods: the nucleoprotein (np) genes from 4 isolates of h9n2 viruses isolated from commercial chickens in iran during 2008-2009 were amplified by rt-pcr method and sequenced. nucleotid...

Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an acute viral zoonotic disease, with a mortality rate of 30-50%. There is no approved vaccine or any specific antiviral treatment for CCHF; therefore, the rapid diagnosis seems to be crucial for both efficient supportive therapy and control of infection spread. In this study, the potency of recombinant nucleoprotein of virus expressed in pr...

results in this study, seven sirna molecules were rationally designed against the nucleoprotein gene and validated using various computational methods for silencing different strains of rsv. additionally, three effective sirna molecules targeting the overlapping region of m2/l mrna were designed. conclusions this approach provides insight and a validated strategy for chemical synthesis of an an...

MvaT from Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a member of the histone-like nucleoid structuring protein (H-NS) family of nucleoid-associated proteins widely spread among Gram-negative bacteria that functions to repress the expression of many genes. Recently, it was reported that H-NS from Escherichia coli can form rigid nucleoproteins filaments on DNA, which are important for their gene-silencing functio...

SARS-CoV-2 emerged as a new respiratory virus spreading rapidly to all areas of the world. A systematic review with meta-analysis concerning use Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) methodology targeting nucleoprotein (N) gene was conducted. The search resulted in 229 articles, which 19 articles were selected compose final review. In general, LAMP showed high specificity detection and ...

Spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV) is an aetiological agent of a serious disease affecting carp farms in Europe and is a member of the Rhabdoviridae family of viruses. The genome of SVCV codes for five proteins: nucleoprotein (N), phosphoprotein (P), matrix protein (M), glycoprotein (G) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (L). RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) i...
