  • The nuclear capsid protein gene (vp39) of Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (Chinese isolate, BmNPV Ch) was amplified by PCR and inserted into pGEM 3zf(+). The amplified vp39 gene (1 230 bp) was sequenced with silver staining dideoxy chain termination. The coding region is 1 053 bp, and code for 351 amino acids. Comparing with the vp39 gene of BmNPV Ja (Japanese isolate), the homology of the nucleotide and the amino acid sequences is 97.5% and 97.1% respectively. The BmNPV vp39 gene was inserted into the expression vector pRSET A, and transformed into E.coli BL21. This gene from BmNPV Ch is 9 bp longer than that of BmNPV Ja. The insertion of nine nucleotides is found in vp39 gene sequence of BmNPV Ch (CGA at 625 site and GTCGGC at 985-910).

    Abstract: The nuclear capsid protein gene (vp39) of Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (Chinese isolate, BmNPV Ch) was amplified by PCR and inserted into pGEM 3zf(+). The amplified vp39 gene (1 230 bp) was sequenced with silver staining dideoxy chain termination. The coding region is 1 053 bp, and code for 351 amino acids. Comparing with the vp39 gene of BmNPV Ja (Japanese isolate), the homology of the nucleotide and the amino acid sequences is 97.5% and 97.1% respectively. The BmNPV vp39 gene was inserted into the expression vector pRSET A, and transformed into E.coli BL21. This gene from BmNPV Ch is 9 bp longer than that of BmNPV Ja. The insertion of nine nucleotides is found in vp39 gene sequence of BmNPV Ch (CGA at 625 site and GTCGGC at 985-910).
