Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional analysis of multigene family 110 of African swine fever virus.

TL;DR: The transcriptional data obtained enabled us to generate the first detailed transcriptional map of a region of the African swine fever virus genome, thus opening the possibility of studying the cis-acting sequences involved in transcriptional control of the viral genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

African Swine Fever Virus Structural Protein pE120R Is Essential for Virus Transport from Assembly Sites to Plasma Membrane but Not for Infectivity

TL;DR: Results indicate that pE 120R is necessary for virus dissemination but not for virus infectivity, and suggest that protein pE120R might be involved in the microtubule-mediated transport of ASFV particles from the viral factories to the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization and molecular basis of heterogeneity of the African swine fever virus envelope protein p54.

TL;DR: Alcaraz et al. as discussed by the authors reported that the propagation of African swine fever virus (ASFV) in cell culture generates viral subpopulations differing in protein p54 (C. Alcaraz, A. Brun, F. Ruiz-Gonzalvo, and J. M. Escribano, 1992).
Journal ArticleDOI

Repression of African Swine Fever Virus Polyprotein pp220-Encoding Gene Leads to the Assembly of Icosahedral Core-Less Particles

TL;DR: Analysis of an ASFV recombinant, v220i, containing an inducible copy of the CP2475L gene regulated by the Escherichia coli repressor-operator system indicates that polyprotein pp220 is essential for the core assembly and suggests that its myristoyl moiety may function as a membrane-anchoring signal to bind the developing core shell to the inner viral envelope.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Sequence of African Swine Fever Virus BA71, the Virulent Parental Strain of the Nonpathogenic and Tissue-Culture Adapted BA71V

TL;DR: Analysis of the BA71 sequence allowed us to identify new similarities among ASFV proteins, and with database proteins including two ASfV proteins that could function as a two-component signaling network and the possible contribution of these changes to virulence.
