Interferon Resistance of Hepatitis C Virus Genotypes 1a/1b: Relationship to Structural E2 Gene Quasispecies Mutations

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope glycoprotein-2 (E2) inhibits the interferon (IFN)–induced, double –stranded RNA activated protein kinase (PKR) via PKR eukaryotic initiation factor-2α phosphorylation homology domain (PePHD). Present study examined the genetic variability of the PePHD in patients receiving interferon therapy. The PePHD region from HCV genotype 1a/1b infected patients receiving I...

Genetic and biological analyses of a herpes simplex virus intertypic recombinant reduced specifically for neurovirulence.

RS6 is a herpes simplex virus intertypic recombinant derived from type 1 strain 17 syn+ and type 2 strain HG52. With a 50% lethal dose of about 10(5) PFU after intracerebral inoculation of mice, RS6 was approximately 100,000 times less neurovirulent than either of its wild-type parental viruses were. When compared with strains 17 syn+ and HG52, RS6 replicated intermediately in primary mouse emb...

Amino acid changes responsible for attenuation of virus neurovirulence in an infectious cDNA clone of the Oshima strain of tick-borne encephalitis virus.

A stable full-length infectious cDNA clone of the Oshima strain of Tick-borne encephalitis virus (Far-Eastern subtype) was developed by a long high-fidelity RT-PCR and one-step cloning procedure. The infectious clone (O-IC) had four amino acid substitutions and produced smaller plaques when compared with the parent Oshima 5-10 strain. Using site-directed mutagenesis, the substitutions were reve...

Emergence and Control of Zoonotic Viral Encephalitides

The viral encephalitides of Eastern, Western, and Venezuelan equine encephalitis viruses have been of public health concern for years. Over the last decade, several outbreaks caused by emerging zoonotic viral encephalitides, such as West Nile virus in North America and Nipah virus in Malaysia and Singapore in 1999, resulted in serious illnesses and deaths in persons, domesticated food animals, ...
