| virus-like particles of a fish nodavirus display a capsid subunit domain organization different from that of insect nodaviruses. | the structure of recombinant virus-like particles of malabaricus grouper nervous necrosis virus (mgnnv), a fish nodavirus isolated from the grouper epinephelus malabaricus, was determined by electron cryomicroscopy (cryoem) and three-dimensional reconstruction at 23-a resolution. the cryoem structure, sequence comparison, and protein fold recognition analysis indicate that the coat protein of mgnnv has two domains resembling those of tomato bushy stunt virus and norwalk virus, rather than the ex ... | 2002 | 12021370 |
| characterization of virus-like particles assembled in a recombinant baculovirus system expressing the capsid protein of a fish nodavirus. | betanodaviruses are causative agents of neurological disorders in several species of fish. we cloned and sequenced the rna2 segment of two grouper viruses isolated from epinephelus malabaricus (malabaricus grouper nervous necrosis virus, mgnnv) and epinephelus lanceolatus (dragon grouper nervous necrosis virus, dgnnv). the sequences of the two rnas were 99% identical and comparison with previously sequenced rna2 segments of fish nodaviruses striped jack nervous necrosis virus, atlantic halibut v ... | 2001 | 11883005 |
