Benzopyrene (BP), 7,12-dimehyl benzanthracene (DMBA), nitrosomethyl urea (NUMU) 및 nicotine과 같은 발암성 화학물질들이 바이러스 감염된 vero 세포의 단층 세포 배양에서 I형 단순성포진 바이러스 (HSV-1)의 복제, 세포융해, DNA합성 및 단백질 합성에 미치는 효과를 관찰하였다. 1. BP와 DMBA는 HSV-1의 복제와 세포융해작용을 유의성있게 억제하였으나 nicotine과 NMU는 별로 억제하지 않았다. 2. 모든 발암성 화학물질은 바이러스의 DNA합성을 억제하지 못하였지만 새로 합성되는 후손바이러스 DNA로 부터 표현되는 gamma 단백질의 표현은 BP와 DMBA에 의해서 현저하게 억제되었다. 그러나 모든 발암성 화학물질은 바이러스의 alpha 및 beta 단백질의 합성은 억제하지 못하였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 발암성화학물질이 존재하고 있는 배지내에서 새로 합성되는 바이러스의 DNA로 부터 표현되는 gamma 단백질의 결함이 있음을 알 수가 있었으며 이같은 개념은 발암화학물질의 존재하에서 바이러스의 DNA와 단백질이 거의 정상적으로 합성됨에도 불구하고 바이러스의 복제가 일어나지 않는다는 사실이 뒷받침해주고 있다.

Background: The usefulness of DNA vaccine at priming step of heterologous prime-boost vaccination led to DNA vaccine closer to practical reality. DNA vaccine priming followed by recombinant viral vector boosting via systemic route induces optimal systemic immunity but no mucosal immunity. Mucosal vaccination of the reversed protocol (recombinant viral vector priming-DNA vaccine boosting), however, can induce both maximal mucosal and systemic immunity. Here, we tried to address the reason why the mucosal protocol of prime-boost vaccination differs from that of systemic vaccination. Methods: To address the importance of primary immunity induced at priming step, mice were primed with different doses of DNA vaccine or coadministration of DNA vaccine plus mucosal adjuvant, and immunity including serum IgG and mucosal IgA was then determined following boosting with recombinant viral vector. Next, to assess influence of humoral pre-existing immunity on boosting $CD8^+$ T cell-mediated immunity, $CD8^+$ T cell-mediated immunity in B cell-deficient (${\mu}K/O$) mice immunized with prime-boost regimens was evaluated by CTL assay and $IFN-{\gamma}$-producing cells. Results: Immunity primed with recombinant viral vector was effectively boosted with DNA vaccine even 60 days later. In particular, animals primed by increasing doses of DNA vaccine or incorporating an adjuvant at priming step and boosted by recombinant viral vector elicited comparable responses to recombinant viral vector primed-DNA vaccine boosted group. Humoral pre-existing immunity was also unlikely to interfere the boosting effect of $CD8^+$ T cell-mediated immunity by recombinant viral vector. Conclusion: This report provides the important point that optimally primed responses should be considered in mucosal immunization of heterologous prime-boost regimens for inducing the effective boosting at both mucosal and systemic sites.

볼티모어의 분류체계에 의하면 바이러스는 복제 및 단백질합성 전략에 따라 6개의 집단으로나눌 수 있다. 몇 종류의 작은 DNA 바이러스를 제외한 대부분의 바이러스는 게놈 복제를 위한 자신의 핵산중합효소를 유전자로 암호화하고 있다. 바이러스 핵산중합효소에는 DNA-의존DNA 중합효수, RNA-의존RNA 중합효소, RNA-의존 DNA 중합효소 세 종류가 있으며, 이들은 모두 4개의 공통된 모티프(motif)를 가진다. 우리는 볼티모어의 분류체계와 바이러스의 핵산중합효소와의 관계를 아미노산 서열을 통해 분자 계통분류학적 분석을 통해 알아보고자 하였다. NCBI GenBank에서 얻은 바이러스 중합효소의 아미노산 서열을 CLUSTAL X 프로그램으로 다중서열하고, Neighbor-joining, Maximum-likelihood, Bayesian의 세 가지 방법으로 계통도를 그려보았다. 미세한 차이는 있었으나, 세 가지 방법 모두에서 볼티모어의 분류법과 일치하는 결과를 보였고, 특이하게도 두 가닥 RNA 바이러스는 숙주의 종류에 따라, (-)RNA 바이러스는 게놈의 절편화에 따라 각각2개의 소집단으로 나뉘어지는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

A persistent DNA tumor virus infection transforms normal cells into cancer cells by either integrating its genome into host chromosomes or retaining it as an extrachromosomal entity called episome. Viruses have evolved mechanisms for attaching episomes to infected host cell chromatin to efficiently segregate the viral genome during mitosis. It has been reported that viral episome can affect the gene expression of the host chromosomes through interactions between viral episomes and epigenetic regulatory host factors. This mini review summarizes our current knowledge of the tethering sites of viral episomes, such as EBV, KSHV, and HBV, on host chromosomes analyzed by three-dimensional genomic tools.

Molecular cloning was carried out on the Danish strain of bovine viral diarrhea virus(BVDV) to construct strategy for the diagnostic tools and effective vaccine of BVD afterwards. A recombinant DNA clone(No. 29) was established successfully from cDNA for viral RNA tailed with adenine homopolymer at 3'-end. $^{32}P$-labeled DNA probes of 300~1,800bp fragments, originating from the clone 29, directed specific DNA-RNA hybridization results with BVDV RNA. Recombinant DNA of the clone 29 was about 5,200bp representing 41.6% of the full length of Danish strain's RNA, and restriction sites were recognized for EcoR I, Sst I, Hin d III and Pst I restriction enzymes in the DNA fragment.

Objectives: To evaluate the clinicopathologic correlation and prognostic value of HPV18 DNA viral load in patients with early-stage cervical neuroendocrine carcinoma (NECA). Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue of cervical NECA patients with known HPV18 infection and clinicopathologic data including follow-up results were collected. The HPV18 DNA load was assessed with quantitative PCR targeting the HPV18 E6E7 region. Results: Twenty-one patients with early-stage (IB-IIA) cervical NECA were identified. HPV18 DNA viral load ranged from 0.83 to 55,174 copies/cell (median 5.90). Disease progression, observed in 10 cases (48%), was not significantly associated with any clinicopathologic variables. However, the group of patients with progressive disease tended to have a higher rate of pelvic lymph node metastasis (50% versus 9%, p=0.063) and a lower median value of HPV18 DNA viral load (4.37 versus 8.17 copies/cell, p=0.198) compared to the non-recurrent group. When stratified by a cut-off viral load value of 5.00 copies/cell, the group of patients with viral load ${\leq}5.00$ copies/cell had a significantly shorter disease-free survival than the group with viral load >5.00 copies/cell (p=0.028). The group with a lower viral load also tended to have a higher rate of disease progression (75% versus 31%, p=0.080). No significant difference in the other clinicopathologic variables between the lower and higher viral load groups was identified. Conclusion: HPV18 DNA viral load may have a prognostic value in patients with early-stage NECA of the cervix. A low viral load may be predictive of shortened disease-free survival in these patients.

Viral RNA was extracted from a purified orchid strain of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV-O) from Cymbidium "Grace Kelly". Polyadenylated viral RNAs were primed with Not I-oligo (dT) primer-adapter. First-strand cDNAs were reversely transcribed by Moloney murine leukaemia virus reverse transcriptase (RNAse H-), and then second-strand cDNAs were synthesized by RNase H and DNA polymerase I. The resulting double-stranded cDNAs were ligated into pSPORT1 vector and transformed into competent E. coli strain JM109 cells. The size of cDNAs within the recombinant plasmids was ranging from 0.9 to 3.9 kb. Among the selected clones, pTMO-0205 and -0210 covered the 3' half and the 5' half of the viral genomic RNA, respectively, which were covering more than 99% of the viral genemo size based on sequencing analysis. Two cDNA fragments which were 3.1 kb BamHI and NotI fragement released from pTMO-0.205 and 3.3 kb SalI and BamHI fragment released from pTMO-0210 were ligated with T4 DNA ligase. The clone was almost entire length, lacking only 31 nucleotides from the 5' terminus based on the sequencing result. This method was shown to be efficiently applicable to other plant viral gnomic RNA for the construction of cDNA.n of cDNA.

The introduction of metagenomics into the field of virology has facilitated the exploration of viral communities in various natural habitats. Understanding the viral ecology of a variety of sample types throughout the biosphere is important per se, but it also has potential applications in clinical and diagnostic virology. However, the procedures used by viral metagenomics may produce technical errors, such as amplification bias, while public viral databases are very limited, which may hamper the determination of the viral diversity in samples. This review considers the current state of viral metagenomics, based on examples from Korean viral metagenomic studies-i.e., rice paddy soil, fermented foods, human gut, seawater, and the near-surface atmosphere. Viral metagenomics has become widespread due to various methodological developments, and much attention has been focused on studies that consider the intrinsic role of viruses that interact with their hosts.
