A 36 nucleotide deletion mutation in the coding region of the NS1 gene of an influenza A virus RNA segment 8 specifies a temperature-dependent host range phenotype.
Previously a spontaneous 36 nucleotide deletion in the coding region of NS1 was detected in the NS gene of a reassortant virus (CR43-3) recovered from a dual infection by the influenza A/Ann Arbor/6/60 cold-adapted (ca) mutant and wild-type (wt) influenza A/Alaska/6/77 (H3N2). The hemagglutinin, neuraminidase and NS genes were derived from the wild type virus parent while the other 5 genes were...
متن کاملThe smallest genome RNA segment of influenza virus contains two genes that may overlap.
The genome of influenza virus consists of eight segments of single-stranded RNA, each of which encodes a different polypeptide. In addition to the eight recognized gene products, the virus specifies a distinct smaller nonstructural polypeptide (NS2), which is translated from a separate species of virus-specific mRNA. The location on the virus genome of the gene encoding this polypeptide was inv...
متن کاملThe Interactomes of Influenza Virus NS1 and NS2 Proteins Identify New Host Factors and Provide Insights for ADAR1 Playing a Supportive Role in Virus Replication
Influenza A NS1 and NS2 proteins are encoded by the RNA segment 8 of the viral genome. NS1 is a multifunctional protein and a virulence factor while NS2 is involved in nuclear export of viral ribonucleoprotein complexes. A yeast two-hybrid screening strategy was used to identify host factors supporting NS1 and NS2 functions. More than 560 interactions between 79 cellular proteins and NS1 and NS...
متن کاملPartial nucleotide sequence of South American yellow fever virus strain 1899/81: structural proteins and NS1.
We have partially cloned and sequenced the genome of a Peruvian yellow fever virus isolate (1899/81) and compared the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of this strain with the previously published sequence of the West African yellow fever virus strain Asibi. In the 3594 base region sequenced, which contains the structural genes (C, M, E), all but the 72 3'-terminal nucleotides of the ...
متن کاملNucleocytoplasmic transport: the influenza virus NS1 protein regulates the transport of spliced NS2 mRNA and its precursor NS1 mRNA.
Influenza virus unspliced NS1 mRNA, like retroviral pre-mRNAs, is efficiently exported from the nucleus and translated in the cytoplasm of infected cells. With human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the transport of viral pre-mRNAs is facilitated by the viral Rev protein. We tested the possibility that the influenza virus NS1 protein, a nuclear protein that is encoded by unspliced NS1 mRNA, has th...
