DNA nucleotide sequence analysis of the immediate-early gene of pseudorabies virus
USDA, Agricultural Research Service. National Animal Disease Center Ames, IA 50010, USA
Received February 24, 1989. Revised May 11, 1989. Accepted May 11, 1989.
The complete DNA sequence coding for the immediate-early protein (IE180) of pseudorabies virus was determined. The coding region of IE180 is 4380 nucleotides for 1460 amino acid residues. G+C content of the non-coding portion of the IE gene is 70.3% while the G+C content of the coding portion is considerably higher at 80.1 %. Correspondingly, codons consisting mainly of Gs and Cs are favored. Clusters of amino acid homologies are observed among IE180 of pseudorabies virus, ICP4 of herpes simplex virus type-1 and IE140 of varicella-zoster virus, and are organized similarly in all three polypeptides. Functions exhibited by IE180 are assigned, tentatively, to structural domains of the molecule by analogy to the HSV-1 ICP4 polypeptide.
