摘要:  
为了揭示禽脑脊髓炎病毒(AEV)的分子特性,使用RT-PCR方法扩增出AEV SD和HB分离株和1株标准鸡胚适应株VR株的VP1基因,克隆到载体pBluescript SK(-)上,然后进行序列测定,并对这3株AEV的VP1基因与已发表的AEV活疫苗株1143株和强毒株L2Z株进行比较。结果,发现它们之间核苷酸和氨基酸的同源性分别为94.2%~99.9%和98.9%~100.0%。SD株和HB株与鸡胚适应毒VR株的VP1蛋白氨基酸序列完全相同。与1143株和L2Z株比较,VP1蛋白仅存在2~3个氨基酸的差异。结果表明,在不同AEV毒株中,VP1蛋白高度保守,存在极低的抗原性差异,不同AEV毒株的毒力和组织亲嗜性可能与VP1基因无关,VP1蛋白可作为防制AEV潜在的亚单位疫苗和诊断抗原。

Abstract: To reveal the molecular characteristics of avian encephalomyelitis virus(AEV),VP1 gene sequences of AEV strains SD,HB and VR were determined.The VP1 genes of two AEV isolates and one standard egg-adapted strain VR were amplified by using RT-PCR,then cloned into the vector pBluescript SK(-) and sequenced.The sequences of VP1 genes of these three strains were compared with those of the live AEV vaccine strain 1143 and virulent strain L2Z.The results showed that the 94.2%-99.9% nucleic acid identities and 98.9%-100.0% amino acid similarities existed among the AEV strains examined so far.The two strains SD and HB had identical amino acid sequences with that of the strain VR.Furthermore,they had only 2-3 amino acid substitutions compared to the strains 1143 and L2Z.The results indicated that AEV VP1 was a highly conservative protein with much low antigenic variation among different strains,and the difference of virulent and tissue-tropism of different AEV strains might not be associated with the VP1 gene,which was used as a potential candidate for subunit vaccine and diagnostic antigen of AEV.
