Genetic recombination between temperature-sensitive and wild-type influenza A virus strains. 1983

F Shu-Yi, and T Tanaka, and H Goto, and K Tobita

Genetic cross was performed between a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of influenza virus A/WSN (H0N1) which carries a ts lesion in M gene, and a wild type A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2). Twelve clones were isolated randomly from the mixed yield in the absence of any selective procedure and they were individually examined for their ts character. In addition, structural and non-structural polypeptides of an individual clone were analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to identify from which parent each viral protein was derived. The experiments have shown that at high frequency recombination occurred with respect to every major viral protein; this is compatible with the view that recombination with influenza viruses is actually a mere exchange of RNA segments.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D009980 Influenza A virus The type species of the genus ALPHAINFLUENZAVIRUS that causes influenza and other diseases in humans and animals. Antigenic variation occurs frequently between strains, allowing classification into subtypes and variants. Transmission is usually by aerosol (human and most non-aquatic hosts) or waterborne (ducks). Infected birds shed the virus in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces.
