The authors examined a role of some mutated A/Leningrad/134/17/57(H2N2) virus genes in the realization of growth characteristics. The latter of single gene reassortants (SGRs) (PB2, PB1, PA, M, and NS), epidemic virus and attenuation donor were assessed by infecting MDCK cells and hen embryos at a low inoculation index. Viral replication in the hen embryos and cultured tissue was compared at 34 degrees C. The viruses and reassortants tested showed a high growth capacity in the hen embryos (9.5-10.5 Ig TCID50). The growth curves of viruses were studied on the cultured MDCK cells at a low inoculation index indicated that Len/17 and the single gene reassortants M and NS had the highest growth capacity. At the same time the growth of both PB1 and PB2 SGRs was less extensive. The reproduction of PB2 SGR was 100-1000 times less than that of other viruses tested. M, NS, and PA gene mutations did not affect viral growth in hen embryos and cultured tissue while PB2 gene mutation and its constellations with other genes caused a reduction in viral growth in the cultured tissue.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching. Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick
D003080 Cold Temperature An absence of warmth or heat or a temperature notably below an accustomed norm. Cold,Cold Temperatures,Temperature, Cold,Temperatures, Cold
D005814 Genes, Viral The functional hereditary units of VIRUSES. Viral Genes,Gene, Viral,Viral Gene

Adaptation, Physiologic,Adaptations, Physiologic,Adaptations, Physiological,Adaptive Plasticity,Phenotypic Plasticity,Physiological Adaptation,Physiologic Adaptation,Physiologic Adaptations,Physiological Adaptations,Plasticity, Adaptive,Plasticity, Phenotypic
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014763 Viral Matrix Proteins Proteins associated with the inner surface of the lipid bilayer of the viral envelope. These proteins have been implicated in control of viral transcription and may possibly serve as the "glue" that binds the nucleocapsid to the appropriate membrane site during viral budding from the host cell.
