Porcine parvovirus (PPV), recently named Ungulate protoparvovirus 1, is considered to be
one of the most important causes of reproductive failure in swine. Fetal death …

Porcine parvovirus (PPV) is among the most important infectious agents causing infertility in
pigs. Until recently, it was thought that the virus had low genetic variance, and that …

Sequence analysis revealed phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2) motifs in capsid proteins of
parvoviruses. Although PLA 2 activity is not known to exist in viruses, putative PLA 2 s from …

Neonatal gnotobiotic piglets were inoculated with tissue homogenates and low-and high-
passage cell culture material to determine if the lesions of the newly described porcine …

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an emerging disease in swine.
Recently, the disease has been reproduced with inocula containing a newly described …

The structure of baculovirus-expressed porcine parvovirus (PPV) capsids was solved using
X-ray crystallography and was found to be similar to the related canine parvovirus (CPV) …

The current classification of parvoviruses is based on virus host range and helper virus
dependence, while little data on evolutionary relationships among viruses are available. We …

ABSTRACT Porcine parvovirus genotype 1 (PPV1) causes reproductive disorder in swine
and is prevalent in China. Recently, six new genotypes of PPVs (PPV2 through PPV7) have …

We analyzed a region of the capsid of canine parvovirus (CPV) which determines the ability
of the virus to infect canine cells. This region is distinct from those previously shown to …

The capsid of parvoviruses proteins were recently shown to contain secreted phospholipase
A 2 (sPLA 2)-like activity that is required during host cell entry. Parvoviral PLA 2 domains …
