However, a virulent and systemic feline calicivirus (VS-FCV) variant implicated in multisystem lesions and death in cats has emerged recently. To date, the mechanism underlying virulence variations in VS-FCV remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to provide a tool for exploring genetic variation in VS-FCV, by constructing an infectious clone of VS-FCV SH/2014. First, a full-length cDNA molecular clone of VS-FCV SH/2014 strain, which contains an Xba I recognition site generated by mutating one base (A→T) as a genetic marker, was constructed using the circular polymerase extension reaction (CPER) method. Second, the full-length cDNA clone was introduced into Crandell-Rees feline kidney cells using liposomes to rescue recombinant VS-FCV SH/2014 (rVS-FCV SH/2014). Third, the rescued viruses were identified by real-time PCR, immunofluorescence assay, western blotting, and electron microscopy. The full-length cDNA molecular clone of the VS-FCV SH/2014 strain was successfully constructed and that rVS-FCV SH/2014 could be rescued efficiently. rVS-FCV SH/2014 had the expected genetic markers and morphology and growth characteristics similar to those of the parental virus. The reverse genetics system provides a research platform for future studies on VS-FCV genetic variation and pathogenesis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":17663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of virological methods","volume":"330 ","pages":"Article 115031"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142230797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents a novel TaqMan real-time quantitative PCR method designed for the rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of NOMV, facilitating early diagnosis. Utilizing Beacon Designer software 8.0, we optimized the PCR assay including the development of primers and probes to precisely target the conserved region of the NOMV genome, followed by optimization of primer and probe concentrations and annealing temperature. The resulting assay demonstrated robust performance, with standard curve represented by the equation y=−3.29x+39.42, a high correlation coefficient (R² = 0.995) and an efficiency 99.53 %. Importantly, the method exhibited exceptional specificity, which did not yield cross-reacting signals from other TBVs, including Songling virus (SGLV), Beiji virus (BJNV), tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), Yezo virus (YEZV), Alongshan virus (ALSV), and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome bunyavirus (SFTSV). The assay’s detection limit was remarkably low, reaching 10 copies/μL, representing a 100-fold increase compared to semi-nested RT-PCR. Additionally, it demonstrated excellent repeatability, with coefficients of variation for intra- and inter-group tests consistently below 3 %. Clinical evaluations confirmed the assay’s superior performance, highlighting its high specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility for NOMV detection. In conclusion, the method developed in this study provides a valuable tool to support timely management of NOMV infections, with significant implications for clinical practice.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":17663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of virological methods","volume":"330 ","pages":"Article 115032"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142167739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, several gene knockouts in baculoviruses have been shown to improve the productivity of recombinant proteins. However, the gene editing of the baculovirus genome (approximately 130 kb) remains challenging and time-consuming. In this study, we sought to further enhance the productivity of the silkworm-BEVS by synthesizing and gene editing the BmNPV bacmid from plasmids containing fragments of BmNPV genomic DNA using a two-step Golden Gate Assembly (GGA). The BmNPV genome, divided into 19 fragments, was amplified by PCR and cloned into the plasmids. From these initial plasmids, four intermediate plasmids containing the BmNPV genomic DNA were constructed by GGA with the type IIS restriction enzyme <em>Bsa</em>I. Subsequently, the full-length bacmid was successfully synthesized from the four intermediate plasmids by GGA with another type IIS restriction enzyme <em>Paq</em>CI with a high efficiency of 97.2 %. Furthermore, this methodology enabled the rapid and straightforward generation of the BmNPV bacmid lacking six genes, resulting in the suppression of degradation of recombinant proteins expressed in silkworm pupae.

These conjugates leverage gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as signal transducers, cross-linked to either angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) or SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) antibodies as bioreceptors and showed a distinct color shift from pink to blue.

Furthermore, we explored quantitative analysis using varying concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Both conjugates demonstrated a linear relationship between blue color intensity and virus concentration, with linear ranges of 0.08–0.6 ng/mL and 0.04–0.5 ng/mL, respectively. Low limits of detection and quantification were also achieved. They exhibited specificity, responding solely to SARS-CoV-2 even in complex matrices containing diverse proteins, including the SARS-CoV-1 spike protein.

Measurement of viral load (VL), for both HIV and HBV, plays a critical role for determining their infectious phase and monitoring response to antiviral therapy. Implementation of viral load testing in clinical settings is a significant challenge in resource-limited countries, notably because of cost and availability issues. We designed HIV and HBV primers for conserved regions of the HIV and HBV genomes that were specifically adapted to viral strains circulating in West Africa that are HIV-1 subtype CRF02AG and HBV genotype E. We first validated two monoplex qPCR assays for individual quantification and, then developed a multiplex qPCR for simultaneous quantification of both viruses. HIV RNA and HBV DNA amplification was performed in a single tube using a one-step reverse transcription-PCR reaction with primers and probes targeting both viruses. Performance characteristics such as the quantification range, sensitivity, and specificity of this multiplex qPCR assay were compared to reference qPCR tests for both HIV and HBV viral load quantification. The multiplex assay was validated using clinical samples from co- or mono-infected patients and gave comparable viral load quantification to the HIV and HBV reference test respectively. The multiplex qPCR demonstrated an overall sensitivity of 71.25 % [68.16–74.3] for HBV and 82 % [78.09–85.90] for HIV and an overall specificity of 100 % [94.95–100] for both viruses.
