Detection of Positive Selection in the Major Capsid Protein VP60 of the Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) [PDF]

open access: yesVirus Research, 2008
Mutations were analysed in the major capsid protein VP60 of the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), a calicivirus responsible for high mortality rates in both wild and domestic European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). Likelihood of positive selection was estimated using the PAML software applied to 43 non-identical complete sequences of the ...

Antigenicity of VP60 structural proteinof rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus

Archives of Virology, 1997
Five overlapping segments of the VP60 capsid protein gene of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus have been expressed in E. coli under the control of the T7 RNA polymerase. After purification, the antigenicity of these denatured protein segments has been studied by reactivity with sera from both naturally infected and vaccinated animals in Western blot ...

Immunization With Potato Plants Expressing VP60 Protein Protects Against Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1999
ABSTRACT The major structural protein VP60 of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) has been produced in transgenic potato plants under the control of a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter or a modified 35S promoter that included two copies of a strong transcriptional enhancer.

Immunogenic Properties of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus Structural Protein VP60 Expressed by a Recombinant Baculovirus: An Efficient Vaccine

Virus Research, 1995
We have constructed a recombinant baculovirus containing the gene encoding the structural protein VP60 from the Spanish field isolate AST/89 of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). Infection of cultured Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells with this recombinant virus resulted in the production of high yields of VP60 protein which did not seem to ...

DNA Vaccination With a Gene Encoding VP60 Elicited Protective Immunity Against Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus

Veterinary Microbiology, 2013
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is a contagious disease in adult rabbits, with high mortality, that occurs throughout the world. The VP60 protein has been implicated as main protein antigen in virus diagnosis and vaccine design. In this report, we describe the construction of a novel DNA vaccine (pcDNA-VP60) expressing the RHDV capsid protein (VP60 ...

VP60 The Importance Of Patient Organizations Involvement In Health Technology Assessment

International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 2017
INTRODUCTION:In Europe, the work done by the European Commission and the European Network for Health Technology Assessment (EUnetHTA) has consolidated the role of Health Technology Assessment (HTA), and promises to better harmonize its impact across European Union (EU) countries.

Evidence for recombination in the major capsid gene VP60 of the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV)

Archives of Virology, 2008
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) is a highly fatal disease caused by a virus of the family Caliciviridae. Whereas recombination is well documented in other members of this family, the extent of recombination has so far not been studied in RHDV. To reach a better evaluation of the possible role of recombination in the evolution of RHDV virulence, we ...

The Amino Terminal Sequence of VP60 From Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus Supports Its Putative Subgenomic Origin

Virus Research, 1993
Direct determination of the amino acid sequence of VP60 from rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus is impeded by the presence of a blocked N-terminus. Chemical cleavage of VP60 using cyanogen bromide allowed the identification and purification of two oligopeptides showing identical amino acid composition, one of which had its amino terminus blocked ...

Oral immunization of rabbits with VP60 particles confers protection against rabbit hemorrhagic disease

Archives of Virology, 1996
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) causes more than 90% mortality in adult rabbits. In this study, the cDNA of the VP60 coding sequence of RHDV was cloned under the control of the polyhedrin and p10 promoters of baculovirus to be expressed in insect cells. The expression of RHDV VP60 under the control of the p10 promoter was 5-10 times higher than

The Effect of the Promoter on Expression of VP60 Gene From Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus in Potato Plants

Plant Science, 2002
Abstract We have investigated the use of five different promoter-5′UTR leader combinations to develop a potato plant-based expression system for the production of VP60 protein from rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). The relative efficiency of CaMV 35S, modified CaMV 35S, sunflower polyubiquitin and patatin promoters, as well as the addition of
