Characteristics of the genome of goose parvovirus
1Department of Research, Phylaxia-Sanofi Veterinary Biologicals Ltd. Co., Budapest, Hungary.
Abstract:
The nucleic acid of goose parvovirus showed sensitivity to DNase and Mung Bean nuclease treatment and resistance to digestion with RNase. Viral DNA readily served as a template for self-primed conversion in vitro into a double-stranded form of about 5000 base pairs. There was evidence for encapsidation of strands of opposite polarities in equal amounts. The restriction enzyme cleavage patterns of goose and muscovy duck parvovirus DNAs differed significantly. However, they showed a high degree of homology by a hybridization test.
