| characterization of the genome of equine herpesvirus 1 subtype 2. | the genome structure of equine herpesvirus 1 (ehv-1) subtype 2 was shown by electron microscopic studies and restriction endonuclease site mapping to comprise two covalently linked segments (l, 109 kbp; s, 35 kbp). the s segment contains a unique sequence (us) flanked by a substantial inverted repeat (trs/irs). thus, the genome structure of ehv-1 subtype 2 is similar to that published previously for ehv-1 subtype 1, but the two subtypes differ in the occurrences of ecori and bamhi restriction si ... | 1988 | 2839595 |
| the immunological relationship between canine herpesvirus and four other herpesviruses. | canine herpesvirus (chv) was compared with four other herpesviruses by several serological techniques. cross-neutralization was demonstrated between chv and herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 and pseudorabies virus. non-neutralizing cross-reactions were found with these viruses and also with equine abortion virus and bovine mammillitis virus. the data suggest that chv is immunologically more closely related to herpes simplex virus than to the other viruses used in this study. | 1988 | 2839597 |
| adcc and complement-dependent lysis as immune mechanisms against ehv-1 infection in the horse. | immunity to equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) was evaluated using sera collected from yearling horses involved in a trial of a commercial vaccine. measurement of the ability of these sera to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-dependent lysis revealed that these mechanisms, although potentially important in recovery from ehv-1 infection, do not play a role in protection following vaccination. | 1988 | 2841731 |
| human cytomegalovirus icp22, the product of the hwlf1 reading frame, is an early nuclear protein that is released from cells. | we employed a murine monoclonal antibody (ch41) and a lambda gt11 library of human cytomegalovirus (cmv) dna fragments to map the gene for a viral protein, denoted infected cell protein (icp) 22, to the hwlf1 open reading frame in the s component of the cmv genome (0.92 to 0.93 map units). by using antibody ch41 in immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting analyses, icp22 was readily detected as a beta (delayed early) gene product during viral growth. the cellular localization o ... | 1988 | 2844970 |
| analysis of the in vitro translation products of the equine herpesvirus type 1 immediate early mrna. | equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) gene expression is coordinately regulated in an alpha, beta, gamma fashion. viral alpha gene products include a 6.0-kb immediate early (ie) mrna species (w. l. gray et al., 1987, virology 158, 79-87) and at least four closely related ie polypeptides (ieps) (g.b. caughman et al., 1985, virology 145, 49-61). in this report, we describe results obtained from a series of in vitro translation experiments which were performed in an effort to characterize the ieps and ... | 1988 | 2845657 |
| propagation and quantitation of animal herpesviruses in eight cell culture systems. | a comparative study was carried out to determine the relative sensitivities of eight different cell culture systems to six different herpesviruses of animals. the cells used were: ofl (ovine fetal lung), ml (mink lung), fk (ferret kidney), ptk-2 (potoroo kidney), tek (turkey embryo kidney), ed (equine dermal), bt (bovine turbinate), and pk15 (porcine kidney). the viruses tested were: prv (pseudorabies) of swine, cphv (caprine herpesvirus), ibrv (infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus), dn-599 s ... | 1988 | 2846231 |
| application of cloned fragments of equine herpesvirus type-1 dna for detection of virus-specific dna in equine tissues. | tissue specimens obtained from equine herpesvirus-1 (ehv-1), subtype 1-infected aborted foetuses were analysed for the presence of virus dna by means of southern blot and dot blot hybridisations. the specificity of the methods was confirmed although the sensitivity was inferior to classical techniques such as virus isolation. however, the possibility of detecting the state of the virus dna and the ability to distinguish between subtypes were important features, and the dot blot method was shown ... | 1988 | 2846269 |
| [infection with equine herpesvirus and its manifestation in the central nervous system of the horse]. | infections with ehv1 can lead to manifestation at the cns of horses followed by encephalomyelitis and "equine stroke". horse experiments could confirm the clinical picture and gave links to the potential pathogenesis of the disease. we also have been in the position to isolate and characterize an ehv4 virus out of the brain of a horse with cns disorders. the two viruses carry different biological properties which obviously dominate the pathogenesis. these properties as well as experimental and f ... | 1988 | 2847358 |
| a radial immunodiffusion enzyme assay for detection of antibody to equine rhinopneumonitis virus (ehv-1) in horse serum. | a radial immunodiffusion enzyme assay (ridea) was developed for detection and quantitation of antibodies to equine herpes virus-1 (ehv-1) in horse sera. the detection and quantitation of ehv-1 antibody levels were based on the diameter of the radial diffusion zone of specific antibody in each serum sample reacting with ehv-1 antigen. the circular zone was made visible using peroxidase-conjugated rabbit anti-horse immunoglobulin g and a substrate containing hydrogen peroxide. the results of the r ... | 1988 | 2847396 |
| isolation and characterization of monoclonal antibodies against an attenuated vaccine strain of equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1). | the production and differentiation of monoclonal antibodies (mabs) against the rac-h strain of ehv-1 used as an attenuated live vaccine to prevent rhinopneumonitis and abortion is described. seven different antigenic sites were detected by the 15 mabs produced. ehv-1 specific mabs as well as ehv-1 and -4 common mabs could be established, allowing easy typing of ehv isolates. one mab recognized the vaccine strain only. this reaction was used to investigate a possible involvement of the vaccine st ... | 1988 | 2847404 |
| molecular biological characterization of equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) isolates from ruminant hosts. | isolates of equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) originating from affected antelope and cattle were compared with reference ehv-1 and ehv-4 isolates and were characterized. based on cross-neutralization, dna restriction profiles and blot-hybridization data these isolates could be characterized as ehv-1. one isolate (from an antelope) with a different restriction profile showed significant dna homology with ehv-1, partial homology with ehv-4, and little or no homology with ehv-2 and hsv-1 dnas. blot ... | 1988 | 2849252 |
| evolution of the herpes thymidine kinase: identification and comparison of the equine herpesvirus 1 thymidine kinase gene reveals similarity to a cell-encoded thymidylate kinase. | we have identified the equine herpesvirus 1 (ehv-1) thymidine kinase gene (tk) by dna-mediated transformation and by dna sequencing. alignment of the amino acid sequence of the ehv-1 tk with the tks from 3 other herpesviruses revealed regions of homology, some of which correspond to the previously identified substrate binding sites, while others have as yet, no assigned function. in particular, the strict conservation of an aspartate within the proposed nucleoside binding site suggests a role in ... | 1988 | 2849761 |

| [morphological characteristics of lytic plaques produced by the sp1 strain of the equine herpes virus type 1]. | lytic plaques produced by three different strains of ehv 1 were morphologically compared. the local isolated sp1 strain was compared with the tissue culture adapted kentucky b (ky bcc) strain, and the through hamster passages modified kentucky b (ky ba) strain, both reference strains. ky bcc produced small, irregular in size and shape, lytic plaques of around 1 mm. in the case of ky ba, the plaques were uniform in size and shape, with a diameter of 2 to 3 mm. sp1 strain originated lytic plaques ... | 1988 | 2852823 |
| further biological, serological and biochemical characterization of north american, european and southeast asian strains of bovine herpesvirus 1 compared with other alphaherpesvirinae members. | hemagglutination activity, structural protein profiles and neutralization assays were used in a comparative study of bovine herpesvirus 1 strains from the u.s.a., canada, great britain, denmark and malaysia with equine, feline and human herpesviruses in order to further characterize the bovine herpesvirus 1 hemagglutinin. bovine herpesvirus 1 strains of different geographical origins all showed hemagglutinating activity for mouse erythrocytes; furthermore, feline herpesvirus 1 was also shown to ... | 1988 | 2852870 |
| isolation and comparative restriction endonuclease dna fingerprinting of equine herpesvirus-1 from cattle. | deoxyribonucleic acid fingerprinting analyses with 4 restriction endonucleases (ecori, bamhi, bglii, and hindiii) and serotest results have definitively indicated that 5 herpesviruses isolated from 1974 to 1986 from aborted bovine fetuses and from bovine tissues and nasal secretions were abortigenic subtypes of equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1). the herpesviruses, designated bh1247, 3m20-3, g118, h1753, and 9bsv4, were neutralized by ehv-1-specific antiserum and could be propagated in cultures o ... | 1988 | 2854705 |
| the proteins of equid herpesvirus 1 (ehv 1) recognised by equine antisera and their ability to promote antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. | equine sera were used to immunoprecipitate radiolabelled virus-infected cell proteins; subsequent resolution with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis identified the ehv-1 polypeptides vp 2, 10a, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 20, 21 and 23a. the humoral support of adcc by these sera was examined in vitro. cytotoxicity could be demonstrated against both subtypes irrespective of the immunising isolate. the implications of these results are discussed. | 1987 | 3035747 |
| use of lambda gt11 and monoclonal antibodies to map the genes for the six major glycoproteins of equine herpesvirus 1. | to localize the genes for the major glycoproteins of equine herpesvirus 1 (ehv-1), a library of the ehv-1 genome was constructed in the lambda gt11 expression vector. recombinant bacteriophage expressing ehv-1 glycoprotein epitopes as fusion products with beta-galactosidase were detected by immunoscreening with monoclonal antibodies specific for each of six ehv-1 glycoproteins. seventy-four recombinant lambda gt11 clones reactive with ehv-1 monoclonal antibodies were detected among 4 x 10(5) pha ... | 1987 | 3037108 |
| equine herpesvirus type 1 defective-interfering (di) particle dna structure: the central region of the inverted repeat is deleted from di dna. | the inverted repeat (irs) component of the genome of equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) is an important region of structure and function. it is a major constituent of the dna of ehv-1 defective-interfering (di) particles which have been shown to mediate the coestablishment of oncogenic transformation and persistent infection of hamster embryo cells. in addition, the irs encodes the single ehv-1 immediate early gene and the 31.5k very early protein. dna sequences encompassing ehv-1 internal irs an ... | 1987 | 3037774 |
