Abstract:

In order to study the molecular characteristics and biological function of NS1 gene of feline parvovirus (FPV),the NS1 gene of FPV-BJ 05 strain was amplified,cloned and sequenced.Nucleotide and amino acid homology analysis,signal peptide,transmembrane domain,B-cell preponderant epitope,phosphorylation site subcellular localization and protein structure and fuction,advanced structure of NS1 gene were predicted using bioinformatic softwares.The results showed that the length of NS1 gene was 2 007 bp,encoding 668 amino acids.The NS1 gene of FPV-BJ 05 shared 98.8% to 99.3% nucleotide homology with that of the other FPV strains,and the amino acid homology was 97.9% to 98.8%.Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the NS1 protein of FPV-BJ 05 strain was classified as the same major branch with 3 FPV reference strains registered in GenBank,but it was a small independent branch due to amino acid mutation.The NS1 protein had neither a signal peptide nor a transmembrane domain,which was a non-secretory hydrophobic protein.The prediction results of B cell antigen parameters showed that NS1 protein had good flexibility,high antigenicity and surface accessibility,and it was predicted that the protein contained 13 dominant antigenic sites.62 phosphorylation sites,27 O-glycosylation sites and 2 N-glycosylation sites were found in NS1 protein.The result of subcellular localization showed that the probability of NS1 protein in the cytoplasm and nucleus was higher,which were 69.6% and 17.4% respectively.The prediction of secondary structure revealed that α-helix (39.37%),extended chain (15.42%),random coil (39.37%) and β-turn (5.84%),and the tertiary structure of NS1 protein was curved spiral structure.This study provided theoretical basis for immunologic diagnosis and further research of nucleic acid vaccine of FPV in Beijing.
