Inoculation of SDAU09C1 in ALV-free chickens induced antibody reactions specific to subgroup A or B. But gp85 amino acid sequence comparisons indicated that SDAU09C1 fell into subgroup A; it had homology of 88.8%-90.3% to 6 reference strains of subgroup A, much higher compared to other subgroups including subgroup B. This is the first report for ALV of subgroup A isolated from imported breeders.展开更多

As a first step in method development, we inserted the avian leukosis virus subgroup A （ALV-A） env gene into plasmid pcDNA3.1/Zeo （＋） and used this construct to transfect DF-1 cells. Zeocin-resistant cells were obtained after 2 weeks of zeocin selection. Then, the cells were analyzed using PCR, immunofluorescence, and Western blot for expression of the envA-encoded envelope protein after 30 serial passages. The DF-1/A cell line was completely resistant to 104 TCIDso/0.1 mL （50% tissue culture infective dose）ALV-A and was partially resistant to 10~ TCIDs0/0.1 mL ALV-A viral particles. By comparing the DF-1/A and DF-1 cell lines, an ALV-A isolate was identified using a gag-specific ELISAfor capsid protein p27. Thus, we established a DF-1/A cell line that was resistant to ALV-A infection. This cell line will be useful as a diagnostic tool.展开更多
The pathogenicity of 4 Chinese strains of subgroup J avian leukosis viruses (ALV-J), SD9901, SD9902, YZ9901 and YZ9902,was studied.

The results showed that only SD9902 among the 4 strains induced mortality from myeloid leukosis (ML). In the 12 meat-type chickens inoculated with SD9902 at 1-day-old, 9 died between 22 days and 38 days after inoculation. No death or ML was found in chickens inoculated with the other 3 strains during the period of 6 months. These results suggested the SD9902 strain of ALV-J was an acute transforming virus, but SD9901, YZ9901 and YZ9902 were non-transforming viruses. All 4 Chinese strains did not induce any tumors in egg-type SPF chickens during 7 months after hatching when viruses were injected into 11-day-old embryos.展开更多

The identification results of ELISA test, PCR and immunofluoresecence assay (IFA) specific for ALV-J were all positive. Based on the public full-length proviral genome sequence of ALV-J prototype strain HPRS-103, three pairs of primers were synthesized. The full-length proviral genome sequence of ZH-08 isolate is 7597 bp, which has a little difference with that of published full-length genome sequences, but its organization corresponds with typical retroviral genome structure; and known oncogenes were not included in its genome. According to the gp85 sequence comparison of ZH-08 isolate with those of the other reference strains in China and abroad, the highest similarity (93.7%) was with the YZ9901 isolate. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the gp85 gene, showed that the ZH-08 isolated here had the closest linkage to the SD07LK1 isolate. This study provides the basis for the biological characterization and pathogenesis research of the ZH-08 isolate.展开更多
