鸡贫血病毒衣壳蛋白基因克隆、测序和比较

摘要

VP1 gene of chicken anemia virus in liver of infected chicken from Harbin was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and cloned into pUC18The recombinant vector was identified by restriction digestionThree clones were sequenced with sequencing kit ABI PRISM by TaKaRa CoLtdThe open reading frame of the VP1 gene is made up of 1,350bpIt encodes 449 amino acid residuesIt was found that there is an abundant Arg region from position 3 to 46Its isoelectric point is up to 107 because of its abundant basic amino acidsComparing this Harbin isolate with 26p4,Cux-1,82-2,Del-rose,A2,Connb,L-028,TR20,CIA-1,CAV15,2A9 showed there were 168 nucleoside differences which lead to 26 amino acid changes of the VP1The amino acid changes may influence the antigenic character of different VP1sIt was also found that there is a hyper-mutation region from amino acids position 139-157,its mutation frequency is up to 42% among these CAV’s VP1s.It is necessary to research the function of this
