Characterization and classification of virus particles associated with hepatitis A. I. Size, density, and sedimentation.

Abstract:

:Virus-like particles were purified from stools of patients in an epidemic of hepatitis A in Germany. When reference MS-1 chimpanzee pre-inoculation and convalescent sera were used, the close serological relationship of the purified particles to well-known isolates of hepatitis A could be established. On the other hand, the physicochemical characteristics of the particles were determined in parallel to the characteristics of a marker parvovirus (LuIII) and a marker picornavirus (poliovirus type 2). It could be shown that the majority of the hepatitis A-associated particles band at 1.34 g/ml in CsCl and, like poliovirus, sediment at about 160S. In addition, a distinct hepatitis A antigen was observed, which banded at 1.305 g/ml and sedimented between 50 and 90S. A further component accumulated in the density range of between 1.38 and 1.44 g/ml. However, it seemed to be rather labile. Upon reisolation from CsCl and sedimentation in sucrose, it resolved into a 160S, a 90 to 100S, and a 50S form. The size of the 160S particles (27 to 29 nm) could be readily distinguished from that of the parvovirus (22 to 24 nm). It is concluded, therefore, that hepatitis A-associated virus particles are more likely to be classified with the picornaviruses than with the parvoviruses.
