[Isolation and identification of swine NDV JL01 strain and phylogenetic analysis of F gene].

An outbreak of fever and dyspnea with high incidence rate and case fatality rate occurred among pigs in a pigfarm in Jilin province, China, in 2000. The paramyxovirus-like particles could be observed in lungs, spleens and kidneys of the dead pigs under the transmission electron microscope. A Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolate designated as JL01 was determined as the causal agent for the disease outbreak.

[Expression of AIV subtype H5HA, H7HA and H9HA hemagglutinin gene in Pichia pastoris].

The expression of the hemagglutinins of Avian influenza virus H5 H7and H9 subtypes was studied in this article by Pichia pastoris, one of the eukaryotis expression systems. Three reconstructed expression plasmids and engineering strains, named pPIC9K-H5HA, pPIC9K-H7HA, pPIC9K-H9HA and GS115/pPIC9K-H5HA, GS115/pPIC9K-H7HA, GS115/pPIC9K-H9HA repectively, were obtained. The reconstructed yeast engineering strains were identified by MD and MM plate selecting and PCR.
