    5′ sequences of BDV X818. (A) Experimental strategy. After ligation of the 5′ and 3′ ends of the viral RNA, RT-PCR was performed with primers Ol 380R and Ol 11500. Two microliters of the amplification product was used for a second, nested PCR with primers Ol 200R and Ol 12000. (B) PCR product obtained after nested PCR. (C) Alignment of the 5′ NCR sequences of the four pestivirus genotypes. For BDV X818, the consensus sequence was determined from six independent clones. Other sequences were extracted from the GenBank/EMBL database (CSFV C strain [27], CSFV Alfort-T [26], BVDV-1 NADL [13], BVDV-1 Osloss [14], BVDV-2 890 [34]). Conserved nucleotides are indicated with an asterisk.

    3′ sequences of BDV X818. (A) Experimental strategy. After ligation of an RNA oligonucleotide (Ol LIG) to the 3′ end of the viral RNA, RT-PCR was performed with primer Ol G31, which is complementary to Ol LIG, and primer Ol 11500. Two microliters of the amplification product was used for a second, seminested PCR with primers Ol G31 and Ol 11900. (B) PCR product obtained after seminested PCR. (C) Alignment of the 3′ NCR sequences of the four pestivirus genotypes. For BDV X818, the consensus sequence was determined from 12 clones obtained after ligation with an RNA oligonucleotide and from six clones obtained after ligation of the 5′ and 3′ ends of viral RNA (see also Fig. 1). Other sequences were extracted from the GenBank/EMBL database. Each sequence starts with the translational stop codon. Conserved nucleotides are indicated with an asterisk. The repeat sequence motif TATTTATTTA identified within the 3′ NCR of BDV X818, as well as CSFV C strain and Alfort-T, is underlined. (D) Predicted secondary structure of BDV X818 3′ NCR. Modeling was performed with the computer program RNAFOLD. The numbers correspond to those of the sequence shown in panel C.

    Comparison of the 3′ NCR sequence of BDV X818 with the ones of other BDV strains. The corresponding nucleotide sequences of the 3′ NCR of ovine strains L83-84, Moredun, and Cumnock, bovine strain V-TOB, and porcine strain Frijters were determined from at least three independent clones obtained after ligation with an RNA oligonucleotide and subsequent seminested RT-PCR (for experimental strategy, see also the legend to Fig. 2). Each sequence starts with the translational stop codon. Only differences from the BDV X818 sequence are indicated. The repeat sequence motif TATTTATTTA is underlined.

    Fig. 4.

    Pestivirus polyprotein and alignment of sequences flanking the predicted cleavage sites. The diagram at the top shows the location of structural proteins (shaded boxes) and nonstructural proteins (open boxes). Proteases involved in processing include viral N-terminal autoprotease Npro, cellular signal peptidase (⧫), and viral NS2-3 (NS3) serine protease (▴). The N termini of structural proteins C, Erns, E1, and E2 have been determined for CSFV Alfort-T (37, 41), while those of the nonstructural proteins p7, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, and NS5B have been determined for BVDV-1 strains CP7 and NADL (18, 45, 56). The alignment of sequences around the predicted processing sites include deduced amino acid sequences of CSFV Alfort-T (26), CSFV C strain (27), BVDV-1 CP7 (24), BVDV-1 NADL (13), BVDV-2 890 (34), and BDV X818 (present study).

    Fig. 5.

    Immunoblot analysis of BDV X818 nonstructural proteins. After infection with vaccinia virus MVA-T7pol, BHK-21 cells were transfected with pX818-NS34AB (lane 2), pX818-NS5AB (lane 3), or a combination of both (lane 4). BHK-21 cells infected with MVA-T7pol but not transfected served as a control (lane 1). Cells were lysed 16 h posttransfection or postinfection, and the samples were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (8% polyacrylamide) under reducing conditions, transferred to nitrocellulose, and incubated with anti-myc (A) or anti-NS3 (B) monoclonal antibody. The sizes of marker proteins are indicated on the left. The positions of c-myc (A) and X818-specific proteins NS5AB-myc (A), NS5B-myc (A), and NS3 (B) are marked with arrows.
