Abstract:
:The 3'-portion of the genome from a Taiwan isolate of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus, strain MD-001, was cloned and sequenced. The resultant 549 nucleotides contained an open reading frame with a coding capacity of 123 amino acids (predicted Mr 13,600). The predicted protein corresponds to the nucleocapsid protein, the gene product of ORF7. Comparative sequence analysis of several known PRRSV strains indicated that this protein showed the highest degree of amino acid similarity to the US VR2332 and the Canadian IAF-Exp91 strains (92.7%) and the least to the Dutch Lelystad strain (56.5%). The phylogenic trees constructed on the basis of the known PRRSV nucleotide sequences indicated that MD-001 strain belongs to the North American strain cluster and that it is distinct from the European virus.
