The polyacrylamide gel analysis of large intracellular virus-specific proteins NV5, NV4, and the intracellular form of structural protein V3 established differences in the electrophoretic mobility of each of these proteins formed in cells infected with tick-borne encephalitis, Powassan, Langat, and West Nile viruses. It is assumed that these differences in the electrophoretic mobility of NV5, NV4 proteins, and the intracellular form of V3 protein reflect the differences in the primary structure of each of these proteins in the viruses examined.

D005416	Flavivirus	A genus of FLAVIVIRIDAE containing several subgroups and many species. Most are arboviruses transmitted by mosquitoes or ticks. The type species is YELLOW FEVER VIRUS.	Arbovirus, Group B,Arboviruses, Group B,Flaviviruses,Group B Arbovirus,Group B Arboviruses
D013045	Species Specificity	The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.

D014902	West Nile virus	A species of FLAVIVIRUS, one of the Japanese encephalitis virus group (ENCEPHALITIS VIRUSES, JAPANESE). It can infect birds and mammals. In humans, it is seen most frequently in Africa, Asia, and Europe presenting as a silent infection or undifferentiated fever (WEST NILE FEVER). The virus appeared in North America for the first time in 1999. It is transmitted mainly by CULEX spp mosquitoes which feed primarily on birds, but it can also be carried by the Asian Tiger mosquito, AEDES albopictus, which feeds mainly on mammals.
