Summary ― Since 1984, a previously unrecognized respiratory coronavirus, causing
a mostly un-apparent infection, has rapidly and massively spread within the swine …

Further screening is necessary to confirm N. hispida as a natural reservoir host of the virus.
Although the presented bat-associated sequence is obviously distinct from other …

The causative agent (TGEV) of porcine transmissible gastroenteritis belongs to the
Coronaviridae, a family of enveloped viruses with a positive, single-stranded RNA genome …

SUMMARY VP-2b, a major structural protein of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), and
its precursor protein VP-2a were separated in a soluble form from the supernatant of …

The architecture of transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus includes three different
structural levels, the envelope, an internal core, and the nucleocapsid that is released when …

Coronavirus transcription leads to the synthesis of a nested set of mRNAs with a leader
sequence derived from the 5′ end of the genome. The mRNAs are produced by a …

ABSTRACT Coronavirus (CoV) nonstructural protein 14 (nsp14) is a 60-kDa protein
encoded by the replicase gene that is part of the replication-transcription complex. It is a …

Targeted recombination within the S (spike) gene of transmissible gastroenteritis
coronavirus (TGEV) was promoted by passage of helper respiratory virus isolates in cells …

Coronaviruses are frequently claimed to have a characteristic morphology, including the
possession of a “club-shaped” surface projection or spike (S) glycoprotein. However, in …

Four canine coronavirus type II (CCoV-II) strains were identified in the guts and internal
organs of pups which had died of acute gastroenteritis. The CCoV-II strains were strictly …
