Transcription in vitro of infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus, a fish rhabdovirus.

Complete genomic sequence of the fish rhabdovirus infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the genome of the fish rhabdovirus infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) has been determined after cDNA cloning of the viral genomic RNA. Sequence analysis showed the presence of six open reading frames encoding the nucleoprotein N, the matrix proteins M1 and M2, the glycoprotein G, a so-called non-structural protein NV, and the RNA polymerase L. Th...

Distribution and variation of NV genes in fish rhabdoviruses.

The fish rhabdovirus infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) contains a non-virion (NV) gene between the glycoprotein (G) and polymerase (L) genes on its RNA genome. The present study investigated three other fish rhabdovirus genomes and found that the NV gene of hirame rhabdovirus is closely related to the NV of IHNV, whereas the viral haemorrhagic septicemia NV gene showed evidence of...

Mapping the neutralizing epitopes on the glycoprotein of infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus, a fish rhabdovirus.

Twelve neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the fish rhabdovirus, infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), were used to select 20 MAb escape mutants. The nucleotide sequence of the entire glycoprotein (G) gene was determined for six mutants representing differing cross-neutralization patterns and each had a single nucleotide change leading to a single amino acid substitutio...

Isolation and Identification of the Infectious Haematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV)-like Agent from Farmed Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) from Iran

Identification of the non-virion (NV) protein of fish rhabdoviruses viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus and infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus.

Sequence analysis of a 795 nucleotide region of the fish rhabdovirus viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) genome revealed one complete and one partial ORF of 369 and 153 nucleotides, respectively. The latter ORF probably encodes the amino-terminal part of the L (polymerase) protein. The former ORF potentially encodes a 122 amino acid protein. The location of this ORF as well as the size ...
