Characterization of DNA aptamers generated against the soft-shelled turtle iridovirus with antiviral effects
BACKGROUND Soft-shelled turtle iridovirus (STIV) causes severe systemic disease in farmed soft-shelled turtles (Trionyx sinensis). More efficient methods of controlling and detecting STIV infections are urgently needed. METHODS In this study, we generated eight single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamers against STIV using systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX). RESULTS...
متن کاملThe study of microanatomy of intestinal epithelium in the Chinese soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis)
The microanatomy of the intestinal epithelium in the Chinese soft-shelled turtle (CST) was studied by light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The small intestinal epithelium (SIE) was single layered or pseudostratified. The enterocytes contained mitochondria or mitochondria and lipid droplets. The enterocytes were arranged tightly in the apical parts of epithelium and connected by des...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a new class of DNA aptamers specific binding to Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) with antiviral activities.
The Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV), a member of the genus Ranavirus, is a major viral pathogen that has caused heavy economic losses to the grouper aquaculture industry in China and Southeast Asia. No efficient method of controlling SGIV outbreaks is currently available. Systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) is now widely used for the in vitro selection of artif...
متن کاملGenetic Variation of the Nile Soft-Shelled Turtle (Trionyx triunguis)
We studied the genetic structure of Trionyx triunguis populations from the Mediterranean and African continent based on mtDNA D-loop (776 bp) and nine microsatellite loci. A total of 102 polymorphic sites and 13 mtDNA haplotypes were described. Nucleotide diversity and haplotypes diversity were 0.047 and 0.974 respectively. Both mtDNA and nDNA supported the existence of two main management unit...
متن کاملExtraction optimization and characterization of collagen from the lung of soft-shelled turtle Pelodiscus sinensis
The soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis) is a commercially important aquatic species with abundant collagen content and precious nutritious high quality goods. The present study was to optimize the collagen extraction from lung of Pelodiscus sinensis. Single-factor test was employed to investigate the effects of different extraction methods and the major factors that influence the collagen...
