Complete genome of hepatitis E virus from laboratory ferrets.

ABSTRACT: The complete genome of hepatitis E virus (HEV) from laboratory ferrets imported from the United States was identified. This virus shared only 82.4%-82.5% nt sequence identities with strains from the Netherlands, which indicated that the ferret HEV genome is genetically diverse. Some laboratory ferrets were contaminated with HEV.

Determination of Ferret Enteric Coronavirus Genome in Laboratory Ferrets.

Project description:Ferret enteric coronavirus (FRECV) RNA was detected in laboratory ferrets. Analysis of the complete genome sequence of 2 strains, FRCoV4370 and FRCoV063, revealed that FRECV shared 49.9%-68.9% nucleotide sequence identity with known coronaviruses. These results suggest that FRECV might be classified as a new species in the genus Alphacoronavirus.

Complete genome sequence of Swine hepatitis e virus prevalent in southwest china.

Project description:Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an important public health concern in the world, especially in developing countries of Africa and Asia, including China. Hepatitis E is recognized as a zoonotic disease, which is transmitted across species, including between humans and swine. HEV is highly endemic in China, but the complete sequence of HEV in southwestern China is lacking. Swine HEV strain KM01 was isolated from a village in rural Kunming, Yunnan province, China, where swine are housed with humans. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the swine HEV strain KM01. The sequence and phylogenetic analyses reveal that swine HEV is closely related to the strain isolated from Xinjiang (CHN-XJ-SW13). The genome of the KM01 strain will facilitate further study of HEV molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity in China.

Coding-Complete Genome Sequence of Murine Hepatitis Virus Strain 3 from Brazil.

Project description:Murine hepatitis virus (MHV) strain 3, one of the most important inducers of viral hepatitis, has been extensively studied as an organism to gain a better understanding of coronavirus biology and pathogenesis. Only one sequence is currently available. Another representative isolate has now been sequenced and added to the arsenal of MHV-3 variants.

Complete Genome Sequences of Four Serotypes of Dengue Virus Prototype Continuously Maintained in the Laboratory.

Project description:Dengue prototype strains are widely used for virological study. The strains presented here have been cultured under different laboratory environments, resulting in accumulating genetic variations. We present the genomes of four serotypes of the dengue prototype strain that were continuously maintained in the laboratory. These genomes contain bases different from those of the original prototype strains in GenBank.

Complete hepatitis B virus genome analysis in HBsAg positive mothers and their infants with fulminant hepatitis B.

Project description:BackgroundAfter perinatal transmission of hepatitis B virus, infants of anti-HBe positive HBsAg carrier mothers may develop fulminant hepatitis B. Previously it has been suggested, that fulminant hepatitis B in adults was associated with specific mutations in the HBV-genome. The aim of this study was to investigate, whether specific viral variants are associated with fulminant hepatitis B in young infants.MethodsThe complete HBV-genomes of five mothers and their infants with fulminant hepatitis were isolated from the sera, amplified and directly sequenced.ResultsBetween 6 and 43 base pair exchanges between the HBV genomes of the infants and their mothers were identified. The mutations spread over the entire virus genome. Nucleotide exchanges in the basic core promotor and precore region were identified in all cases. A heterogeneous virus population was detected in four mothers.ConclusionsMany new mutations were proved to emerge during fulminant hepatitis B in infants, who had been perinatally infected. HBeAg negative variants were the predominant population in all children, whereas these mutants could only be detected as subpopulations in four mothers. The data suggest that the selection of a specific HBeAg negative viral strain may be associated with the development of fulminant hepatitis B in children.

Complete Genome Sequence of the WHO International Standard for Hepatitis B Virus DNA.

Project description:The World Health Organization (WHO) international standard (IS) for hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA for use in nucleic acid amplification assays was characterized by determining the complete genome sequence, which was assigned genotype A. This information will aid the design, development, and evaluation of HBV DNA amplification assays.

Complete Genome Sequences of Hepatitis B Virus from North India Using Ion Torrent.

Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is among the most common causes of liver cirrhosis. We report the full-genome sequences of seven molecular clones of HBV genotype A, amplified from an HBV-infected North Indian patient. This is probably the first report of the HBV genome sequencing using Ion Torrent from India.

Complete genome comparison of duck hepatitis virus type 1 parental and attenuated strains.

Project description:Two complete duck hepatitis virus type 1 (DHV-1) genomes, strain SY5 and its chicken embryos passage descendent vaccine strain ZJ-A, were compared and analyzed in order to identify possible sites of attenuation. Of the 205 nucleotide changes, 22 resulted in sense mutations, 174 produced nonsense mutations. Besides, there are 7 consistent nucleotides substitutions in 5'UTR and 2 in 3'UTR. Three of these 22 sense mutations resided in VP0, 6 exists in VP1, one exists in VP3, 3 exists in 2A2, 3 exists in 2C, one was detected in 3B and 5 was in 3D. These results suggested that VP0, VP1, 3D, and 5'/3'UTR may contribute to the attenuation of DHV-1 in chicken/duck/embryos. The results provide a genetic basis for future manipulation of a DHV-1 infectious clone.

Complete genome sequence of hepatitis E virus from rabbits in the United States.

Project description:Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a single-strand positive-sense RNA virus in the family Hepeviridae. The disease caused by HEV, hepatitis E, is an important public health problem in developing countries of Asia and Africa and is also endemic in many industrialized countries, including the United States. HEV has been identified from several other animal species in addition to humans, including the pig, chicken, mongoose, deer, rabbit, ferret, bat, and fish. Here we report the complete genome sequence of the first strain of HEV from rabbits in the United States. Sequence and phylogenetic analyses revealed that the U.S. rabbit HEV is a distant member of the zoonotic genotype 3 HEV, thus raising a concern for potential zoonotic human infection. A unique 90-nucleotide insertion within the X domain of the ORF1 was identified in the rabbit HEV, and this insertion may play a role in the species tropism of HEV.
