폴리오 바이러스는 전형적인 장관계 바이러스로 마비, 무균성 수막염, 뇌염 등을 유발한다. 폴리오 바이러스는 분변-구강 경로를 통해 전파되며, 오염된 물을 음용수로 사용할 시 공중 보건에 문제가 될 수 있으므로 먹는 물에서 폴리오 바이러스를 검출하는 것은 중요하다. 감염성이 있는 바이 러스와 불활성화(열처리와 자외선 처리)시킨 바이러스를 세포배양법, 역전사 중합효소 연쇄반응법(reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction: RT-PCR)그리고 세포배양-중합효소 연쇄반응 통합법(integrated cell culture-PCR: ICC-PCR)으로 검출 실험을 했다. 감염성이 있는 폴리오 바이러스는 세 가지 방법으로 모두 검출이 되었으며, 이 중에서 바이러스를 검출하는데 ICC-PCR 방법이 가장 민감했다. 세포배양법은 적은 수의 바이러스를 검출하는데 약 2주의 긴 시간이 걸렸다. 열처리나 자외선 처리로 불활성화된 바이 러스는 세포배양과 ICC-PCR방법으로는 검출이 되지 않았다. 자외선 처리한 바이러스는 RT-PCR 방법으로 검출되지 않았으나 열처리한 바이러스는 검출되었다. RT-PCR 방법은 감염성 바이러스뿐 아니라 불활성화된 바이러스도 검출할 수 있으므로 감염성이 있는지 없는지를 구분할 수 없는 단점이 있다. 이와 같은 결과는 감염성 있는 바이러스를 가장 민감하고 효과적으로 검출하는 방법이 ICC-PCR 방법이라는 것을 제시하여 준다.

The RNA genome of poliovirus encodes a long polyprotein precursor and this polyprotein is cleaved proteolytically by viral protease to yield mature proteins. The mature proteins derived from the P1 polyprotein precursor are the component of capsids. To further delineate the process of capsid assembly and encapsidation, in a first attempt, a cell line which expresses the authentic P1 polyprotein was established. CV-1 cells were transfected with the pRCRSVS1P1 plasmid DNA which contains 5'ncr sequences, whole authentic capsid gene of poliovirus and neomycin resistance gene. These cells were treated with G418 for 3 months, and eventually G418 resistant cells were selected and formed colonies. Each colony was picked and grown in the media containing G418. DNA analysis indicated that 1 of 13 neomycin resistant cell lines (R2-18) contains whole poliovirus P1 capsid gene segment which was incorporated into the genome. Immuneprecipitation of cell lysates with sera from rabbit immunized with inactivateded Sabin type 1 particles demonstrated the constitutive expression of the poliovirus P1 capsid protein from R2-18.

Recombinant polioviruses have been developed by many research groups for use as vaccine vector because poliovirus induces mucosal immunity as well as humoral immunity through oral uptake. We assessed the potential use of poliovirus as a T-cell epitope carrier. Recombinant poliovirus V129 5L was constructed to have a substituted T-helper epitope from the core protein of Hepatitis B virus at neutralization antigenic site 1 on its VP1 capsid protein. The recombinant virus replicated less efficiently than type 1 poliovirus Mahoney strain. The V129 5L formed a little smaller plaques than the Mahoney strain and showed some 1.25 log unit lower titer at the peak in the one-step growth kinetics though it had similar growth profile to that of the Mahoney strain. Since V129 5L recombinant virus was genetically stable even after 24 successive passages in HeLa cells, the antigenic site 1 on VP1 capsid protein was confirmed for its ability of carrying T cell epitope. The genetic stability of V129 5L also indicated that recombinant poliovirus can be successfully utilized for the development of the multivalent vaccines.

This work was initiated to develope a recombinant oral poliovaccine (OPV), which is highly advanced in safety (minimizing VAPP) by introducing Type 2,3 poliovirus epitopes into our RPS-Vax system. We have introduced several potential vaccine epitopes of poliovirus Type 2, and 3 into RPS-Vax system, resulting in production of recombinant polioviruses. Any of these chimeric viruses, however, were not detected for their foreign gene expression by serotype-specific mouse antiserum. We have designed several folding units to stabilize the introduced vaccine protein and attached short epitope-concatamer or epitope-multimer to them, followed by production of chimeric viruses. Only those who have an HIV-1 Tat-mediated folding unit were nicely detected for the introduced foreign proteins by anti-Tat antiserum and type-specific peptide-induced antisera. Nevertheless, introduced epitopes were not detected in Western blot experiment with each serotype-specific antiserum. None of the mice inoculated with these chimeric viruses showed preventative immunity when challenged with Lansing and Leon wildtype 2 and 3 poliovirus, and the antiserum did not show neutralizing capacity in vitro. Conformational epitope covering B/C loop region of type 2 and 3 were newly designed by computer modeling, and introduced into the RPS-Vax vector system, followed by production of chimeric viruses. Introduced epitope regions were nicely detected by anti-Tag23 mAb or peptide antibody, but still not detected by poliovirus antiserum. Nevertheless, neutralizing antibody was detected in the Tg-PVR mice even when inoculated once with these chimeric viruses. Also, the immunized mice showed perfect preventative immunity against the wild Type poliovirus Lancing or Leon. When boosted appropriately, those chimeric virus-inoculated Tg-PVR mice produced equivalent amounts of neutralizing antibody to those in Sabin 2/3-immunized mice. These data strongly suggest that our recombinant poliovirus (RPS-PV2 and RPS-PV3) can be used as a safe and effective rec-OPV instead of any preexisting poliovaccine.

The poliovirus Sabin 1 strain has features that make it a particularly attractive live recombinant mucosal vaccine vehicle. Sabin 1 cDNA was manipulated to have multiple cloning sites and a viral specific 3C-protease cutting site at the N-terminal end of the polyprotein. The gene for the N-terminal 169 amino acids of the HIV-1 p24 was cloned into the multiple cloning site of the manipulated Sabin cDNA. A recombinant progeny virus was produced from HeLa cells when it was transfected with the RNA synthesized from the p24-Sabin chimeric cDNA. The recombinant progeny virus expresses substantial amounts of the HIV-1 p24 protein, which was clearly detected in the infected cell lysates and culture supernatants in Western blot experiments with rabbit anti-p24 serum and AIDS patients' sera. Differing from the Mahoney strain, the recombinant Sabin 1 poliovirus maintained the foreign gene stably during the subsequent passages. Replication capacity was about 1 to 1.5 log lower than that of the wild-type Sabin 1. Other physicochemical stability characteristics of the recombinant virus were similar to that of the wild-type Sabin 1. These results suggest that the manipulated Sabin 1 poliovirus can be used as a live viral vaccine vector for the development of mucosal vaccines.

폴리오바이러스는 바이러스들 중에서도 특히 커기가 작은 바이러스로서 피막(coat)을 둘러싸는 막(envelop) 이 없다. 폴리오바이러스는 (+) 가닥의 단일 RNA 게놈을 갖는데 이는 한 개의 해독판 (open reading frame)을 이용하여 다단백전구체를 만든 후 바이러스 자체의 단백질분해효소에 의해 스스로 잘라져서 궁극적으로느 특이한 기능을 갖는 여러개의 단백질이 된다. P1 다단백질전구체로부터 만들어지는 단백질들은 바이러스의 피막을 구성하는 성분이다. 단백질분해효소인 2A에 의한 최초의 절단은 구조단백질 P1 전구체와 구조단백질이 아닌 P2-P3간을 분리시켜준다. 단백질분해효소 2A는 진핵세포 판독개시인자(translation initiation factor) 4F의 한 subunit인 숙주단백질 p220의 절단에 간접으로 참여한다. 이 단백질의 절단은 캡(cap)에 의존하는 숙주세포의 대부분의 판독을 차단하게 되며 이는 판독에 사용되는 숙주세포의 모든 기구들을 캡에 의존하지 않는 폴리오바이러스 NA 특유의 판독을 위해 전적으로 사용할 수 있게 해준다. 2B, 2C, 2BC 단백질의 기능에 대해서는 많이 알려져 있지 않다. 2B, 2C, 2BC와 3CD 단백질들은 바이러스로 인해 만들어지는 소낭(vesicle)의 복제복합체에 함유되어 있으므로 바이러스의 RNA 복제시 중요한 역할을 함을 암시해준다. 새로이 만들어진 모든 바이러스 RNA는 VPg와 공유결합으로 연결되어 있다. VPg는 3AB로부터 만들어진 아미노산 22개 짜리의 폴리펩타이드이다. 3C와 3CD는 단백질분해소로 다단백질 전구체의 대부분의 절단부위를 잘라준다. 3C단백질은 숙주의 전사인자를 불활성화 시킴으로써 RNA polymer II와 III에 의한 전사를 저해한다. 3D는 RNA의존선RNA 중합효소이다. 폴리오바이러스는 (+)가닥 RNA 바이러스의 일반적인 복제양식을 따른다. 즉 (+) 가닥 RNA는 이와 상보적인 (-)가닥 RNA로 전사되고 이는 다시 (+)가닥 RNA의 합성을 위한 주형으로 사용된다. 폴리오바이러스의 RNA 합성은 세포내막에서 일어나는 데 RNA 복제에 요구되는 주형 RNA와 이때 필요한 단백질들이 어떤 방법으로 세포내막에서 모일 수 있는지는 아직 밝혀진 것이 적다. 바이러스입자의 형성은 세포막의 RNA 복제가 들어가는 데 피막단백질이 (+)가닥 RNA을 인식하는 표지 즉 packaging singal에 대해서는 거의 알려져 있지 않다. 폴리오바이러스 감염 후 첫 바이러스입자가 만들어지기 까는 약 6시간이 소요된다.

The biological wastewater treatment system is known to have an important role in reducing the quantify of enteric virus in water environments. To clarify the roles of activated sludge microbes in decreasing the virus infectivity, the behavior of the virus in bacteria, protozoa, and metazoa was examined by pure or mixed culture system using poliovirus type 1(Lsc, 2ab strain). In the bacterial culture systems, the virus infectivity in the liquid phase decreased by a reversible adsorption of the virus to the bacteria or bacterial flocs. On the other hand, in the protozoa and the metazoa culture systems using T. pyriformis and P. erythrophthalma, respectively, with a variety of bacterial strains as prey, the main virus decrease mechanism of reversible adsorption in early stage was changed to irreversible predation, which was not eluted in this study. The virus decrease was more effective in the P. erythrophthalma culture system, which had high predation and floc forming abilities. However, in the mixed culture system of Z. ramigera and P. erythrophthalma, the more rapid reversible adsorption of virus to Z. ramigera flocs preceded the irreversible predation of P. erythrophthalma.

Low levels of virus contamination and naturally occurring reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) inhibitors restrain virus detection in oysters. A rapid and efficient oyster-processing procedure that can be used for sensitive virus detection in oysters was developed. Poliovirus type 1 Sabin strain was used to evaluate the efficacy of virus recovery. The procedure included (a) acid-adsorption and elution with buffers (0.25M glycine-0.14 M NaCl, pH 7.5; 0.25M threonine-0.14M NaCl, pH 7.5); (b) polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation; (c) resuspension in Tween 80/Tris solution and chloroform extraction; (d) the second PEG precipitation; (e) viral RNA extraction with TRIzol and isopropanol precipitation; and (f) RT-PCR combined with semi-nested PCR. The overall recovery of elution/concentration was 19.5% with poliovirus. The whole procedure usually takes 19 hr. The overall detection sensitivity was 4 RT-PCR units of genogroup I norovirus (NoV) and 6.4 RT-PCR units of genogroup II Nov/25 g of oysters initially seeded. The virus-detecting method developed in this study should facilitate the detection of low levels of NoV in oysters.

In this study, a rapid and efficient concentrating procedure that can be used for detecting viruses in vegetables was developed. The Sabin strain of poliovirus type 1 was used to evaluate the efficiency of virus recovery. The procedure included: (a) elution with 0.25 M threonine-0.3 M NaCl pH 9.5; (b) polyethylene glycol (PEG) 8000 precipitation; (c) chloroform extraction; (d) 2$^{nd}$ PEG precipitation; (f) RNA extraction; (g) reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) combined with semi-nested PCR. The overall recoveries by elution/concentration were 29.0% from cabbage and 13.7% from lettuce. The whole procedure usually takes 18 hr. The overall detection sensitivity was 100 RT-PCR units of genogroup II norovirus (GII NoV)/25 g cabbage and 100 RT-PCR units of GII NoV/10 g lettuce. The virus detecting method developed in this study should facilitate the detection of low levels of NoV in cabbage and lettuce.
