Separation of ten reovirus genome segments by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Double-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) extracted from purified reoviruses of all three serotypes and from type 3 virus-infected cells was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was calculated that each RNA includes 10 segments: 3 large, 3 intermediate, and 4 small fragments corresponding to molecular weights of about 2.5, 1.4, and 0.8 x 10(6) daltons, respectively, or a total of 15 x 10(6) daltons.

Size and structure of the genome of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus.
The genome of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus consists of two segments of dsRNA, in equimolar amounts, with molecular weights of 2.5 X 10(6) and 2.3 X 10(6) daltons, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. The viral RNA was resistant to ribonuclease, and in sucrose gradient it co-sedimented at 14S with RNase resistant RNA from virus infected cells. Upon den...
متن کاملUsing a Temperature Gradient against the Time in Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis May Eliminate the Need for Stacking Gels
Background and Objectives: Making stacking gels for polyacrylamide gels in the laboratory by conventional methods is laborious and time consuming. Considering the role of temperature in polyacrylamide gels with respect to electrical resistance and viscosity, we assumed that decreasing the temperature would cause an increase in electrical resistance and viscosity. Ultimately, a downward tempera...

A method of plaque assay for African horsesickness virus (AHSV) is described. Three cell lines were tested of which BHK21 was the most satisfactory. With an increase in Actinomycin D concentration, an increased inhibition of infective virus producti...
متن کاملEvidence for Aberrant ,l and ,u2 Polypeptide Species
Temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants of the Dearing strain of reovirus type 3 have been isolated and classified into seven groups (A to G) on the basis of genetic recombination analyses (2, 4). Fields et al. (5) examined the ability of five groups of ts mutants to synthesize viral polypeptides at the nonpermissive temperature by using immunological precipitation to detect those polypeptides prese...
متن کاملBiophysical studies of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus.
The molecular weight of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) has been determined by analytical ultracentrifugation and dynamic light scattering. The sedimentation coefficient of the virus was found to be 435S. The average value for molecular weight is (55 +/- 7) x 106. The virus genome consists of two segments of double-stranded RNA (molecular weights, 2.5 x 106 and 2.3 x 106), which rep...
