We have characterized the proteins and mRNAs of bovine respiratory syncytial (BRS) virus strain 391-2 and constructed cDNA clones corresponding to 9 of the 10 BRS virus mRNAs. The proteins of BRS virus-infected cells were compared with the proteins from human respiratory syncytia...

A cultura da bananeira pode ser infectada por diversas viroses, como o vírus do topo em leque da bananeira, o vírus das estrias da bananeira, o vírus do mosaico do pepino, o vírus do mosaico das brácteas da bananeira, o Banana mild mosaic virus, o Banana virus X, o Abaca bunchy t...

Bovine respiratory syncytial (BRS) virus causes a severe lower respiratory tract disease in calves similar to the disease in children caused by human respiratory syncytial (HRS) virus. While there is antigenic cross-reactivity among the other major viral structural proteins, the ...

This article reviews some of the published applications of flow cytometry for in vitro and in vivo detection and enumeration of virus-infected cells. Sample preparation, fixation, and permeabilization techniques for a number of virus-cell systems are evaluated. The use of flow cy...

Several virion and nonvirion DNAs were tested for the ability to activate endogenous type C virus in BALB/c-derived mouse cells using the calcium precipitation technique. The DNAs from all herpesviruses tested activated xenotropic type C virus synthesis. These included DNAs from ...

Three passage levels of dengue-2 virus strain PR-159, obtained during the course of deriving the attenuated S-1 vaccine, were tested for their ability to replicate in subpopulations of human peripheral blood leukocytes: (i) 6th primary African green monkey kidney (PGMK) cell pass...

Thirteen dengue virus-specific, cytotoxic CD4+ CD8- T-cell clones were established from a donor who was infected with dengue virus type 3. These clones were examined for virus specificity and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) restriction in cytotoxic assays. Six patterns of virus spe...

The ultrastructure and morphogenesis of Mason-Pfizer monkey virus, isolated from a mammary carcinoma in a Rhesus monkey, was compared with those of murine mammary tumor virus, murine leukemia virus, L1210 leukemia-associated virus, and avian myeloblastosis virus. The simian virus...

Isopycnic centrifugation of rhinovirus type 14 (RV14), purified from infected HeLa or KB cell cultures, into CsCl gradients resolved two bands of infectious virus particles with buoyant density values of 1.409 +/- 0.007 (H virus) and 1.386 +/- 0.004 (L virus) g/ml. Only H virus w...

We have studied the nucleic acid sequences in nonproducer cells transformed by Moloney sarcoma virus or Abelson leukemia virus (two types of replication-defective, RNA-containing, viruses isolated by passage of Moloney leukemia virus in BALB/c mice). DNA probes from the Moloney l...

Two isolates of a virus of the genus Orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) were obtained from hemorrhagic fever cases during a large disease outbreak in East Africa in 1997 and 1998. Sequence analysis of regions of the three genomic RNA segments of the virus (provisionally referr...

Plaque formation by A59 virus, a murine coronavirus, was facilitated in AL/N and Balb mouse cells transformed by polyoma virus, simian virus 40, murine sarcoma virus, or mammary tumor virus. In these virus-transformed cells, A59 virus plaques were larger, they appeared earlier, a...

Stimulation with live dengue virus of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from a dengue virus type 4-immune donor generated virus-specific, serotype-cross-reactive, CD8+, class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) capable of lysing dengue virus-infected cells and cells pulse...

Myeloproliferative virus, derived from Moloney sarcoma virus, causes erythroleukemia and myeloid leukemia in adult mice. This virus is also capable of fibroblast transformation in vitro. The virus consists of two separable biological entities which have been cloned. The helper vi...

No significant hybridization was detected of DNA from simian virus 40 or polyoma virus, and of 70S RNA from avian myeloblastosis virus, murine leukemia virus (Rauscher), murine sarcoma virus (Kirsten), RD-114B, simian sarcoma virus-1, or Mason-Pfizer virus....

Continuous virus production is a characteristic of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) infected and transformed by a nondefective Schmidt-Ruppin subgroup A Rous sarcoma virus. This virus production has been examined with particular attention to the amount of newly budded virus which...

Thymidine kinase positive (TK+) N type cell lines that had been transformed by spleen focus-forming virus were established by transformation with NB tropic Friend virus complex. Thymidine kinase deficient (TK-) cell clones were isolated. Some of these cell clones release 1000- to...

A rat type C virus spontaneously activated from the NRK (normal rat kidney) cell line was found to have two major size classes of viral RNA subunits sedimenting at 35 and 30 S. Virus-producing cells contained both RNA species, while normal “virus-free” rat cells contained primari...

Several sulfated polysaccharides (dextran sulfate, pentosan polysulfate, fucoidan, and carrageenans) proved to be potent inhibitors for herpes simplex virus, human cytomegalovirus, vesicular stomatitis virus, Sindbis virus, and human immunodeficiency virus. They were moderately i...

Inoculation of rabbits and mice with a vaccinia-rabies glycoprotein recombinant (V-RG) virus resulted in rapid induction of high concentrations of rabies virus-neutralizing antibodies and protection from severe intracerebral challenge with several strains of rabies virus. Protect...

The protease encoded by the large (B) RNA segment of cowpea mosaic virus was tested for its ability to recognize the in vitro translation products of the small (M) RNA segment from the comoviruses squash mosaic virus, red clover mottle virus, and cowpea severe mosaic virus (CPsMV...
