Complete genome sequence of a J subgroup avian leukosis virus isolated from local commercial broilers.

ABSTRACT: Subgroup J avian leukosis virus (ALV-J) isolate GDKP1202 was isolated from a 50-day-old local yellow commercial broiler in the Guangdong province of China in 2012. Here we report the complete genomic sequence of the GDKP1202 isolate, which caused high mortality, serious growth suppression, thymic atrophy, and liver enlargement in commercial broilers. A novel potential binding site (5'-GGCACCTCC-3') for c-myb was identified in the GDKP1202 genome. These findings will provide additional insights into the molecular characteristics in the genomes and pathogenicity of ALV-J.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to investigate the differentially expressed miRNAs between ALV-J infected (WRR+) and uninfected (WRR-)chickens spleens by Illumina deep sequencing. Methods: 140-day-old female chickens of White Recessive Rock (WRR) were confirmed as J subgroup avian leukosis virus (ALV-J) infection. Total RNA from three ALV-J-infected spleens (designated: WRR1+, WRR2+, WRR3+) and three uninfected normal spleen samples (designated: WRR1-, WRR2-, WRR3-) was isolated by TRIzol following the manufacturer’s instruction (Invitrogen, CA, USA). RNA samples of three individuals within each group were pooled with equal amounts, and then were subjected to Illumina deep sequencing by Illumina Hiseq 2500. Results: After raw data filtered, 12,150,275 and 15,227,930 reads of 18-32 bp, representing 569,847 and 543,062 unique sequences, were obtained for WRR- and WRR+ libraries, respectively. Through blasting with the chicken reference genome, 360,180 WRR- sequences and 327,391 WRR+ sequences, which accounted for more than 60% of the unique sequences, were perfectly matched.To analyze the miRNA detection efficiency of Illimuna deep sequencing, all the clean reads were blasted with the Rfam data base 10.1, annotated and then removed rRNA, tRNA, snoRNA and other snRNAs. The annotation results revealed that miRNAs accounted for more than 68% of all clean reads in the WRR− and WRR+ libraries. In this study, a total of 476 miRNAs were identified after compared the unique sequences against the chicken miRNAs precursors in miRBase 18.0. Base on unique sequences matched counts, 167 differential expression miRNAs were identified by DEGseq package using Benjamini-q-value of 0.001 as a cut-off. In ALV-J infected spleens, 83 miRNAs showed up-regulated expression and 84 were down-regulated when compared to uninfected samples. Conclusions: Our study represents the first time to analysis of miRNA Expression in Spleen of J Subgroup Avian Leukosis Virus (ALV-J) Infected (WRR+) and Uninfected (WRR-) Broilers. A total of 167 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed in ALV-J infected spleens when compared to uninfected chickens. These miRNAs can be considered as candidates for further study ALV-J invasion.

Project description:BackgroundFive isolates (JS09GY2, JS09GY3, JS09GY4, JS09GY5, and JS09GY6) of avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) were isolated from six infected commercial layer flocks displaying both hemangioma and myeloid leukosis (ML), which shared the same parental line, in China in 2009.ResultsAll six of the commercial layer chickens examined showed hemangiomas on their body surface or feet. Some developed hemangiomas in their internal organs, causing hepatorrhexis and blood loss. Histopathologically different stages of hemangiomas with ML in the liver, heart, and spleen, were observed. Five viral isolates were obtained from infected DF1 cells incubated with the spleen tissue or serum of the birds from the six flocks. By full genome sequences analysis, a 19-nucleotide repeat sequence was identified in the primer binding site (PBS)-leader region of isolates JS09GY3 and JS09GY6, located between sites 249 and 250 according to the sequence of reference strain HPRS103, and also present in Rous sarcoma virus strain Schmidt-Ruppin B (RSV-SRB), Rous associated virus type 1 (RAV-1), and Rous associated virus type 2 (RAV-2). The predicted Gp85 proteins of isolates JS09GY2, JS09GY3, JS09GY5, and JS09GY6 were highly variable. Interestingly, the E elements of these four examined isolates showed a key deletion at site 30, which produced a new c-Ets-1 binding site. An 11-bp insertion was also found in the E element of isolate JS09GY3 located between bp 66 and 67 according to the sequence of reference strain HPRS103, while almost all previously reported Chinese strains showed an almost identical deletion of 127 bp in the same region.ConclusionsFive ALV-J isolates were obtained from six field infected commercial layer chickens. Coexistence of hemangioma and ML were observed in these infected cases both macro- and microscopically. Complete proviral genome sequences of two isolates (JS09GY3 and JS09GY6) and the partial sequences of the other two isolates (JS09GY2 and JS09GY5) were determined. The isolates were found to be recombinants of ALV-J with a PBS-leader sequence originating from other retroviruses. The Gp85 protein with an amino acid deletion, a contiguous 11-bp insertion mutation in the E element, and a novel binding site, were noted in the proviral genomes.
