[ Method] A section of multiple cloning sites among NIb/CP genes in pCIYVV genome and deoxyribonucleotide polylinker of cleavage recognition sequence containing viral protease Nla were cloned with infectivity full-length cDNA of clover yellow vein virus （CIYVV）, and pCIYVV/CP/W vector was constructed, GFP gene was inserted into pCIyVV/CP/W to construct the pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP vector. The transcription situation of recombinant virus clone was detected by RT-PCR, and targeted gene products expressed by recombinant virus clone were detected with western blot （WB）. [Result] The broad bean seedling inoculated with pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP expressed the same symptom as wild type CIYVV, morbidity was of 100%, the result showed that recombinant virus clone pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP didn＇t suppress, insertion of foreign gene didn＇t destroy the open reading frame of pCIYVV/CP/W. Foreign gene can keep living in F, progeny virus genorne steadily, recombinant virus clone pCIYVV/CP/W/GFP could steadily express GFP in progeny virus at least.[ Conclusion] The useful plant virus vector was provided for useful protein expressing.展开更多

Fifty-two from 18 families were found to have inducing activity. Twenty-fiveand seven of them were from Euphorbiaccae and Thymclaeaceae, respectively. Some ofthem, such as Croton tiglium, Euphorbia kansui, Daphnc genkwa, Wikstrocmia chamacdaphen, Wikstroemia indica, Prunus mandshurica Koehne and Achyranthes bidentata arecommonly used drugs. The significance of these herbs in the activation of EBV in vivo andtheir relation to the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were discussed.展开更多

The EBV-derived membrane antigen was expressed under the control of a 7.5 K promoter of vaccinia virus. The antibody against the membrane antigen of EB virus was produced on rabbits vaccinated with recombinant vaccinia virus.展开更多

In this study we aimed to develop a semi-quantitative assay for the study of HBV RT protein using this system. Complete HBV polymerase gene from a wild type virus （rt306P） and the polymerase gene from a mutant, with rt306P substituted by serine （rtP306S） were separately fused to the maltose binding protein （MBP） gene and expressed in E. coli respectively. The expression levels of HBV polymerase genes from the wild type virus and its counterpart mutant at rt306 were compared. When these proteins were semi-quantified by Westem blotting using rabbit anti-TP serum, the rtP306S mutant showed decreased expression of MBP-HBV polymerase. By this method, we have shown that the expression level of HBV RT could be affected by substitutions in its amino acid sequences, and this method could be used to study the characteristics of HBV RT protein.展开更多

Methods Techniques of virus infection, Western blot, immunohistochemistry, dual-immunofluorecsence staining, laser scanning confocal microscopy, RNA dot blot and in situ hybridization were used.Results Expression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) was observed in cells infected with HTV as well as the translocation of Hsp70 from cytoplasm to nucleoli following virus infection. The variable distribution of Hsp70 was related to the various time after infection. Double-label indirect immunofluorescence of nuclear protein (NP) and Hsp70 in infected cells demonstrated co-localization of these proteins in the cytoplasm. Conclusion Overexpression of Hsp70 can be induced directly by Hantaan virus, which may be associated with virus protein assembly. The Hantaan virus proteins co-localize with, and possibly form a physical complex with cellular Hsp70 in infected cells.展开更多
