Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of an interferon antagonist protein encoded by segment 7 of infectious salmon anaemia virus.

TL;DR: The demonstration that ISAV segment 7 encodes a putative non-structural IFN system antagonist reveals a difference with influenza A virus, where segment 7, which shares a similar coding strategy, encodes the structural matrix proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strain variation, based on the hemagglutinin gene, in Norwegian ISA virus isolates collected from 1987 to 2001: indications of recombination

TL;DR: It is suggested that the hemagglutinin gene from different isolates may recombine, and possible recombination sites are found within the H PR and in the 5'-end flanking region close to the HPR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional characterisation of the maternal yolk-associated protein (LsYAP) utilising systemic RNA interference in the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) (Crustacea: Copepoda).

TL;DR: It is confirmed that the LsYAP protein is produced in adult females but is utilised by the offspring, and the sequence characteristics, histological localisation and transcript regulation suggest that it is a yolk-associated protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Segment 8 encodes a structural protein of infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV); the co-linear transcript from Segment 7 probably encodes a non-structural or minor structural protein.

TL;DR: Immunoblot studies using this antiserum and a serum against purified virus, show that Segment 8 encodes one of the major structural proteins of the virus whereas the co-linear ORF of Segment 7 probably encodes a non- or minor structural protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infectious salmon anemia virus (ISAV) genomic segment 3 encodes the viral nucleoprotein (NP), an RNA-binding protein with two monopartite nuclear localization signals (NLS).

TL;DR: The expression and functional analysis of the ISAV genome segment 3 is presented, and further evidence that it encodes the viral nucleoprotein (NP) is provided, confirming that the encoded protein has an intrinsic ability to be imported into the nucleus.
