Recombination and amino acid point mutations in VP3 exhibit a synergistic effect on increased virulence of rMDPV
13 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
Recombinant Muscovy duck parvovirus (rMDPV) is a product of genetic recombination between classical Muscovy duck parvovirus (MDPV) and goose parvovirus (GPV). The recombination event took place within a 1.1-kb DNA segment located in the middle of the VP3 gene, and a 187-bp sequence extending from the P9 promoter to the 5′ initiation region of the Rep1 ORF. This resulted in the alteration of five amino acids...
