Deletion of pV affects integrity of capsid causing defect in the infectivity of bovine adenovirus-3
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Members of the genus Mastadenovirus including bovine adenovirus 3 (BAdV-3) encode a genus-specific unique protein named pV. The pV encoded by BAdV-3 is a protein of 423 aa showing 40.9 % identity to pV of human adenovirus 2. Here, we report the construction and analysis of recombinant BAdV-3 (BAV.dV) containing deletion of pV. The BAV.dV could only be isolated in CRL.pV cells expressing pV, suggesting that pV appears essential for the infection of BAdV-3. Analysis of BAV.dV suggested that despite affecting some late gene expression in virus-infected cells, there was no significant difference in the incorporation of viral proteins in the mature virions. Moreover, analysis of mature virions revealed degraded capsids leading to change in morphology and infectivity of BAV.dV. Furthermore, analysis of the genome sequence of different clones of BAV.dV passaged in different cell lines revealed no mutations in core proteins pVII and pX\Mu suggesting that the replication defect may not be rescued. Our results suggest that pV is required for proper viral assembly of BAdV-3 as lack of pV produces aberrant capsids. Moreover, altered capsids lead to the production of non-infectious BAV.dV virions.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
