A shrimp glycosylase protein, PmENGase, interacts with WSSV envelope protein VP41B and is involved in WSSV pathogenesis

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2020
Viral glycoproteins are expressed by many viruses, and during infection they usually play very important roles, such as receptor attachment or membrane fusion. The mature virion of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is unusual in that it contains no glycosylated proteins, and there are currently no reports of any glycosylation mechanisms in the ...

LvCPG2 facilitated WSSV infection by interaction with VP26 and VP28

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2021
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSP), widely distributed in extracellular matrices, have several important functions in vertebrates. In certain viruses, CSP acts as a receptor to promote infection. However, chondroitin proteoglycans lack sulfate are poorly understood in invertebrates. In this study, chondroitin proteoglycan 2 of Litopenaeus vannamei

Involvement of WSSV–shrimp homologs in WSSV infectivity in kuruma shrimp: Marsupenaeus japonicus

Antiviral Research, 2010
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is pathogenic and specific to shrimp, and is capable of producing a persistent infection in the host. Moreover, shrimp are capable of persistently carrying a single or multiple viruses, allowing them to survive for long periods with latent infections.

LvCSN5 is involved in WSSV infection via interaction with wsv006

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2021
As an extremely virulent pathogen, white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) greatly threatens shrimp aquaculture worldwide. The interaction between virus and host is important for viral infection. In the present study, a yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) library was constructed to clarify the functions of wsv006, and the interaction between wsv006 and shrimp Litopenaeus ...

Function of shrimp STAT during WSSV infection

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2014
JAK/STAT signaling pathway plays key roles in the antiviral immunity of mammals, fish and insect. However, limited knowledge is known about the function of JAK/STAT signaling pathway in the antiviral immunity of shrimp although virus disease has caused severe mortality in shrimp aquaculture.

A Pacifastacus leniusculus serine protease interacts with WSSV

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2017
Serine proteases are involved in many critical physiological processes including virus spread and replication. In the present study, we identified a new clip-domain serine protease (PlcSP) in the crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus hemocytes, which can interact with the White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) envelope protein VP28.

Development of monoclonal antibodies against VP28 of WSSV and its application to detect WSSV using immunocomb

Aquaculture, 2006
White spot disease (WSD) is an important viral disease of penaeid shrimp caused by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). WSSV isolated from WSD outbreaks in commercial shrimp (Penaeus monodon) farms in India were propagated in the laboratory in healthy shrimp. The virus was purified from the infected tissues by sucrose gradient centrifugation. The VP28 was

Ultrastructure analysis of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV)

Archives of Virology, 2019
In this study, two aspects of the ultrastructure of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) were identified: (i) The virus nucleocapsids were disassembled, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image analysis confirmed that the nucleocapsids were composed of stacked ring segments rather than the usual helix system, with each ring segment consisting of ...

Haemocyte reactions in WSSV immersion infected Penaeus monodon

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2007
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has been a major cause of shrimp mortality in aquaculture worldwide in the past decades. In this study, WSSV infection (by immersion) and behaviour recruitment of haemocytes is investigated in gills and midgut, using an antiserum against the viral protein VP28 and a monoclonal antibody recognising haemocytes (WSH8) in a

Double-stranded RNA against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) vp28 or vp26 reduced susceptibility of Litopenaeus vannamei to WSSV, and survivors exhibited decreased susceptibility in subsequent re-infections

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2011
The antiviral effect of vp28 or vp26 double-stranded (ds) RNA upon single or consecutive white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) intramuscular challenges with a high infectious dose was evaluated.
