Abstract
Canine parvovirus (CPV) is an important pathogen of dogs and wild carnivores. It is a single-stranded DNA virus with a high mutation frequency and antigenic drift. To research the prevalence and genetic variation of CPV in Shandong, 62 samples from diseased dogs were collected and examined by using PCR for parvovirus. Our results showed that the positivity was 62.9% (n = 39), VP2 gene were sequenced and compared with reference strains. For the parvovirus subtype prevalence, 7 strains were CPV-2a (17.9%) and 32 strains were CPV-2c (82.1%). The results of phylogenetic analysis of VP2 gene of the CPVs showed all 39 isolates formed a major clade and were distantly related to the commercial vaccine strains. By comparing amino acid (aa) sequences, this study discovered new mutations not previously reported which may be related to host range and antigenicity. Moreover, one CPV-2c strain (QN-55) was isolated and cultured on F81 cells, and characterized by whole-genome sequencing. The TCID50 of this strain was 10-3.2/0.1 mL and animal tests have shown that the strain is fatal to infected dogs.
期刊介绍:
Viruses are convenient models for the elucidation of life processes. The study of viruses is again on the cutting edge of biological sciences: systems biology, genomics, proteomics, metagenomics, using the newest most powerful tools.
Huge amounts of new details on virus interactions with the cell, other pathogens and the hosts – animal (including human), insect, fungal, plant, bacterial, and archaeal - and their role in infection and disease are forthcoming in perplexing details requiring analysis and comments.
Virus Genes is dedicated to the publication of studies on the structure and function of viruses and their genes, the molecular and systems interactions with the host and all applications derived thereof, providing a forum for the analysis of data and discussion of its implications, and the development of new hypotheses.
