TGEV strains have been isolated in the USA, Europe, and China, and their molecular characteristics are well known. However, there have been few reports of molecular analysis of TGEV strains isolated in Southeast Asia. In 2016, we isolated TGEV strain VET-16 from fecal samples collected from piglets in Vietnam and determined its complete genome sequence by Sanger sequencing. We found that, while the full genome of the VET-16 strain was 92.4-99.9% identical to those of other TGEV strains, the ORF3 gene showed very little sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that the VET-16 strain belongs to the Purdue subgroup. Comparison of the predicted amino acid (aa) sequence of the spike protein of strain VET-16 with those of other TGEV strains revealed three aa substitutions (V378L, S379T, and D380N) and a 3-aa insertion (F383_F387insWEK) in antigenic site D of the VET-16 strain. Also, a single aa deletion (∆F1413) was found in the transmembrane domain of the spike gene of VET-16. Like the ORF3 gene from the TGEV Miller M60 vaccine strain, the VET-16 strain has a large deletion (∆725 nt) in the ORF3 gene. Previous studies have suggested that these mutations in the spike and ORF3 genes might be associated with a reduction in pathogenicity. The data from this study will facilitate further genetic analysis and research into the evolution of TGEV in pigs in Vietnam.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8359,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Virology","volume":"169 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142008154","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}
