The normalization and subtraction of highly expressed cDNAs from relatively large tissues before cloning dramatically enhanced the gene discovery by sequencing for the mouse full-length cDNA encyclopedia, but these methods have not been suitable for limited RNA materials. To normalize and subtract full-length cDNA libraries derived from limited quantities of total RNA, here we report a method to subtract plasmid libraries excised from size-unbiased amplified lambda phage cDNA libraries that avoids heavily biasing steps such as PCR and plasmid library amplification. The proportion of full-length cDNAs and the gene discovery rate are high, and library diversity can be validated by in silico randomization.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a neuroinvasive and neurovirulent orthoflavivirus, can be prevented in humans with the SA14-14-2 vaccine, a live-attenuated version derived from the wild-type SA14 strain. To determine the viral factors responsible for the differences in pathogenicity between SA14 and SA14-14-2, we initially established a reverse genetics system that includes a pair of full-length infectious cDNAs for both strains. Using this cDNA pair, we then systematically exchanged genomic regions between SA14 and SA14-14-2 to generate 20 chimeric viruses and evaluated their replication capability in cell culture and their pathogenic potential in mice.

To investigate the characteristics of taurine and betaine contents and identify SNPs associated with traits in the , we cloned the full-length cDNA of key genes in taurine and betaine (unpublished data) metabolism, determined taurine and betaine content and gene expression in different tissues and months of specimen collection, and developed SNPs in the gene coding region. We cloned the full-length cDNA of cysteine dioxygenase ( ) and cysteine sulfite decarboxylase ( ), which are key genes involved in taurine metabolism in , and found that betaine and taurine contents and the expression of key genes were regulated by seawater salinity.

The transcription factor p63 is expressed in many different isoforms as a result of differential promoter use and splicing. Some of these isoforms have very specific physiological functions in the development and maintenance of epithelial tissues and surveillance of genetic integrity in oocytes. The ASPP family of proteins is involved in modulating the transcriptional activity of the p53 protein family members, including p63.

In this study, a novel Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) reverse genetic operating system was developed utilizing CMV promoters, enabling EMCV genome expression under the transcriptional control of the CMV immediate early promoter and BGH polyA transcriptional-termination signal. The full-length cDNA of EMCV BJC3 was ligated to the pRK5 vector, incorporating the CMV eukaryotic promoter sequence, resulting in the construction of recombinant plasmid EMCV (pEMCV). Subsequently, the recombinant plasmid was transfected into BHK-21 cells to generate the rescue virus.

Paris yunnanensis, also named as Rhizoma Paridis in the Chinese Pharmacopeia, is a perennial Chinese medicinal herb commonly grown in Southwest China. However, several viruses have been found infecting this plant in recent years. Using high-throughput sequencing (HTS) and Sanger sequencing, this study obtained the complete genome sequences of three capillovirus isolates and one potyvirus isolate.
