Characterization of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus Bm17.
Open reading frame17 (Bm17) of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus is a highly conserved gene in lepidopteran nucleopolyhedroviruses, suggesting that it performs an important role in the virus life cycle whose function is unknown. In this report, we describe the characterization of Bm17. Reversed transcriptive-PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis demonstrated that Bm17 was expressed as a late ge...
متن کاملCharacterization of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus with a knockout of Bm17.
Open reading frame 17 (Bm17) gene of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus is a highly conserved gene in lepidopteran nucleopolyhedroviruses, but its function remains unknown. In this report, transient-expression and superinfection assays indicated that BM17 localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm of infected BmN cells. To determine the role of Bm17 in baculovirus life cycle, we constructed a Bm17 kn...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Late Gene, ORF134, from Bombyx mori Nucleopolyhedrovirus
Objective: ORF134 of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a homolog of Autographa californica multiple NPV ORF5, but its function is unknown so far. The aim of this study is to characterize BmNPV ORF134 (Bm134). Methods: Transcription, protein expression and subcellular localization of Bm134 in BmN cells and silkworm midguts were analyzed using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR...
متن کاملGenome of a Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus strain isolated from India.
Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV), a member of the Baculoviridae, is a major pathogen of silkworm and has also been recently developed as an expression vector for heterologous gene expression in the silkworm larvae and pupae. To better understand the diversity of this important baculovirus, we sequenced the complete genome of the BmNPV strain isolated from India, where its host is availa...
متن کاملUbiquitin ligase activities of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus RING finger proteins.
The genome of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is predicted to contain six RING finger proteins: IAP1, ORF35, IAP2, CG30, IE2, and PE38. Several other members of the RING finger family have recently been shown to have the ubiquitin-ligase (E3) activity. We thus examined whether BmNPV RING finger proteins have the E3 activity. In vitro ubiquitination assay with the rabbit reticulocyte ly...
