Nucleotide sequence of the respiratory syncytial virus phosphoprotein gene.

چکیده

A cDNA library was prepared from poly(A)+ RNA extracted from respiratory syncytial (RS) virus-infected HEp-2 cells. A recombinant plasmid, pRSP68, encoding the RS virus phosphoprotein gene was identified by translation in vitro of hybrid-selected mRNA. The cloned cDNA insert of 1 kb was sequenced and a polypeptide of 241 amino acids with a molecular weight of 27 166 was deduced from the sequence. The protein was relatively rich in polar amino acids and devoid of both cysteine and tryptophan. A second short open reading frame with a coding potential of 65 amino acids was identified and overlapped the 3' terminus of the phosphoprotein gene by 34 bases.

Sequence analysis of M2 mRNA of bovine respiratory syncytial virus obtained from an F-M2 dicistronic mRNA suggests structural homology with that of human respiratory syncytial virus.

The nucleotide sequences of the F and M2 mRNAs of strain A51908 of bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) were determined by sequencing cDNA of an intracellular dicistronic mRNA. Comparison of the F mRNA sequence with those of other BRSV strains showed that there was extensive sequence identity at both the nucleotide (95% identity) and amino acid (94% identity) levels. Alignment of the nucle...

Sequence analysis of the P and C protein genes of human parainfluenza virus type 3: patterns of amino acid sequence homology among paramyxovirus proteins.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the P + C mRNA of human parainfluenza virus type 3 (PF3) was determined by sequencing cDNA, viral genomic RNA and mRNA. The P + C mRNA is 2009 nucleotides in length, exclusive of poly(A), and contains two overlapping open reading frames (ORFs). The P + C mRNA encodes two proteins, the 602 amino acid nucleocapsid phosphoprotein P and the 199 amino acid non-str...

Sequence comparison between the fusion protein of human and bovine respiratory syncytial viruses.

The nucleotide sequence was determined for the fusion (F) protein-coding mRNA of the bovine respiratory syncytial virus (strain RB 94) and the amino acid sequence of the F protein was deduced for comparison with the sequence of human respiratory syncytial virus subtypes A and B (RSS-2 and 18537 strains). The human and bovine RS virus F proteins (excluding the cleaved signal peptide) share 83 to...
