Mutations in the VP2 gene of rotavirus associated with benzimidazole sensitivity
Rotavirus species A (RVA) is the etiological agent of acute gastroenteritis in young individuals of various animal species, including humans. Vaccination has helped to reduce the impact of these viruses on humans and some species of domestic mammals, but they do not confer complete immunity, so antirotavirus agents are another important control option.

High genetic diversity of the VP2 gene of the canine parvovirus strains
We report the detection of co-infection by multiple CPV variants and the high genetic complexity of several CPV-2 strains detected in dogs and cats. The CPV variants selected by cloning the VP2 gene were sequenced and genetic diversity and selection pressure were investigated. Recombination was examined using different but complementary approaches.

Canine parvovirus (CPV) causes hemorrhagic enteritis, especially in young dogs, leading to high morbidity and mortality. It has four main antigenic types CPV-2, CPV-2a, CPV-2b and CPV-2c. Virus protein 2 (VP2) is the main capsid protein and mutations affecting VP2 gene are responsible for the evolution of various antigenic types of CPV. Full length VP2

Immune responses in a horse inoculated with the VP2 gene of African horsesickness virus. [PDF]
The ability of a DNA vaccine to elicit an immune response in a horse was evaluated. The outer capsid protein VP2 of African horsesickness virus is known to elicit protective immunity in horses. Reverse transcribed DNA of the gene encoding VP2 was placed under the transcriptional control of the cytomegalovirus immediate-early enhancer/promoter and was ...

Parvoviruses exhibit extreme genetic plasticity. The VP2 protein, containing a hypervariable region, is of particular importance. A single nucleotide change in this part of the genome and its effect on the amino acid sequence may significantly affect the range of infected hosts, tropism for specific tissues, or virulence.

Immunosuppression resulting from infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection has critical health and welfare implications for birds, yet it is incompletely understood and largely overlooked as a measure of vaccine efficacy.
