Open reading frame 1 of the Norwalk-like virus Camberwell: completion of sequence and expression in mammalian cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ORF1 sequence was determined for Camberwell virus, a genogroup 2 Norwalk-like virus, completing the full genome of 7,555 nucleotides. ORF1 cDNA was cloned into a simian virus 40-based expression vector, and the viral proteins synthesized following transfection into COS cells were analyzed. By using antisera directed against the helicase, protease, or polymerase regions, eight polypeptides ranging in size from 19 to 117 kDa were detected by radioimmunoprecipitation. The cleavage sites determining the amino and carboxy termini of the 3C-like protease were identified at E(1008)/A and E(1189)/G, respectively.

A cDNA obtained from Grimsby virus (GRV), a Norwalk-like virus, purified from a stool sample of a symptomatic adult associated with a gastroenteritis outbreak in the United Kingdom, was used to obtain the complete nucleotide sequence of the second open reading frame (ORF2). The ORF2 sequence of GRV predicts a capsid of 539 amino acids (aa) which exhibits aa identities of 96% to Lordsdale virus,...

Norwalk virus (NV), a reference strain of human calicivirus in the Norovirus genus of the family Caliciviridae, contains a positive-strand RNA genome with three open reading frames. ORF1 encodes a 1,789-amino-acid polyprotein that is processed into nonstructural proteins that include an NTPase, VPg, protease, and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The N-terminal protein p48 of ORF1 shows no signific...

Background: Human luteinizing hormone (hLH) stimulates steroid biosynthesis of the ovary, triggers ovulation and prepares androgen production of testicular Leydig cells. LH belongs to the family of glycoprotein hormones that are heterodimers consisting of a common α-subunit and specific β-subunit. hLH is necessary for clinical and infertility treatment. Recombinant DNA technology provides a use...
