Molecular and Biological Characterization of Chinese Sacbrood Virus LN Isolate.

ABSTRACT: Chinese sacbrood virus (CSBV) was purified from diseased insects, and its genome was cloned and sequenced. The genomic RNA of CSBV is 8863 nucleotides in length and contains a single large open reading frame encoding a 319.614?kDa polyprotein. The coding sequence is flanked by a 178-nucleotide 5' nontranslated leader sequence and a 142-nucleotide 3' nontranslated region, followed a poly(A) tail. Four major structural proteins, VP1,VP2, VP3 and VP4, were predicted in the N-teminal of the polyprotein. The C-terminal part of the polyprotein contains sequence motifs which is a typical and well-characterized picornavirus nonstructural proteins: an RNA helicase, a chymotrypsin-like 3C protease, and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Genetic analysis shows that the CSBV-LN had a 13-amino-acid deletion at amino acid positions 710-719 and 727-729 in comparison with CSBV-GZ and SBV-UK, and the SBV-UK had a 7-amino-acid deletion at amino acid positions 2124-2132 in comparison with CSBV-GZ and CSBV-LN, and the CSBV-GZ and CSBV-LN had a 6-amino-acid deletion at amino acid positions 2143-2150 in comparison with SBV-UK. Phylogenetic analysis using RdRp of selected picorna-like viruses shows that CSBV/SBV and Deformed Wing Virus (DWV) tend to group together, which possesses an RNA of similar size and gene order.

Project description:BackgroundSacbrood virus (SBV) is one of the most pathogenic honeybee viruses that exhibits host specificity and regional variations. The SBV strains that infect the Chinese honeybee Apis cerana are called Chinese SBVs (CSBVs).MethodsIn this study, a CSBV strain named AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 (GenBank accession No. MG733283) infecting A. mellifera was identified by electron microscopy, its protein composition was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and agar gel immunodiffusion assay, and its nucleotide sequence was identified using a series of reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction fragments of AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 generated using SBV/CSBV-specific primers. To investigate phylogenetic relationships of the CSBV isolates, a phylogenetic tree of the complete open reading frames (ORF) of the CSBV sequences was constructed using MEGA 6.0; then, the similarity and recombination events among the isolated CSBV strains were analyzed using SimPlot and RDP4 software, respectively.ResultsSequencing results revealed the complete 8,794-nucleotide long complete genomic RNA of the strain, with a single large ORF (189-8,717) encoding 2,843 amino acids. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with the SBV/CSBV reference sequences deposited in the GenBank database identified helicase, protease, and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase domains; the structural genes were located at the 5' end, whereas the non-structural genes were found at the 3' end. Multiple sequence alignment showed that AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 had a 17-amino acid (aa) and a single aa deletion at positions 711-729 and 2,128, respectively, as compared with CSBV-GD-2002, and a 16-aa deletion (positions 711-713 and 715-728) as compared with AmSBV-UK-2000. However, AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 was similar to the CSBV-JLCBS-2014 strain, which infects A. cerana. AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 ORF shared 92.4-97.1% identity with the genomes of other CSBV strains (94.5-97.7% identity for deduced amino acids). AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 was least similar (89.5-90.4% identity) to other SBVs but showed maximum similarity with the previously reported CSBV-FZ-2014 strain. The phylogenetic tree constructed from AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 and 43 previously reported SBV/CSBV sequences indicated that SBV/CSBV strains clustered according to the host species and country of origin; AmCSBV-SDLY-2016 clustered with other previously reported Chinese and Asian strains (AC genotype SBV, as these strains originated from A. cerana) but was separate from the SBV genomes originating from Europe (AM genotype SBV, originating from A. mellifera). A SimPlot graph of SBV genomes confirmed the high variability, especially between the AC genotype SBV and AM genotype SBV. This genomic diversity may reflect the adaptation of SBV to specific hosts, ability of CSBV to cross the species barrier, and the spatial distances that separate CSBVs from other SBVs.
