porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection, is an important swine infectious disease that causes substantial losses worldwide each year. PRRSV is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus that is highly susceptible to mutation and recombination, making vaccine and drug research for the disease extremely difficult. In this study, the binding of PRRSV nsp2 to HSP71 protein was detected by using the IP/MS technique. And the inhibitory effect of HSP71 on nsp2 antagonistic activity was validated by measuring NF-kB luciferase reporter. According to stress from inhibitory effects, the amino acid variation profile of PRRSV nsp2 under HSP71 stress was further analyzed using second-generation sequencing. Surprisingly, the results indicated that HSP71 pressure limits the random mutations of PRRSV nsp2 and maintains the dominant PRRSV strain within the population. Mutant strain showed weaker antagonistic activity and replication capability in cell. These results imply the binding of HSP71 with PRRSV nsp2 may lead to maintain the stability of highly virulent strains of PRRSV.

Virus-host protein interaction is critical for successful completion of viral replication cycles. As the largest nonstructural protein (NSP) of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), NSP2 plays multiple and critical roles in viral replication, antiviral immunity, cellular tropism and virulence. An interactome of this protein with host proteins would be instrumental in full understanding of these multifunctional roles.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is the causative agent of a syndrome characterized by reproductive failure and respiratory complications (PRRS). Early detection and classification of PRRSV strains are vital for appropriate management strategies to minimize loss following outbreaks. The most widely used classification method for PRRSV is based on open reading frame 5 (ORF5) sequences.

Introduction: The recent emergence of PRRSV strains NADC30 and NADC34, along with their recombination with HP-PRRSV-like strains, has added complexity to PRRS control strategies on swine farms. Given the high variability and recombination potential of PRRSV, continuous monitoring of the virus's clinical epidemiology is essential for effective prevention and control.
Methods: This study isolated a PRRSV variant, designated SDVD-NMG2023, from approximately 65-day-old pigs, showing a mortality rate of around 15% within the herd.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is the pathogen that causes porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), leading to abortion of sows and the manifestation of respiratory diseases in piglets. PRRSV strains are categorized into two distinct genotypes: PRRSV-1 and PRRSV-2. PRRSV-2 can be further classified into several lineages, including sub-lineage 1.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSVs) are significant pathogens that affect the global swine industry. Its virions consist of a central core composed of nucleocapsid (N) protein, surrounded by multiple distinct viral envelope proteins. However, the mechanisms underlying the recognition and packaging of N protein by viral envelope proteins remain elusive.
