PG - 33-6 LID - 10.1016/j.virusres.2011.03.001 [doi] AB - In the present study, seven new defective interfering (DI) RNA species of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) were identified. RT-PCR, Northern blot and sequence analyses indicated that these DI RNA specie have deletions of 8513-9176 nucleotides located between Nsp1/Nsp2 and Nsp10. Compared with the previous DI RNAs of PRRSV reported, they have three distinct characteristics: much smaller deletion sizes; different nucleotide repeats (2-12nt) used in the junction sites and in-frame deletions. The results further suggested that the similarity-assisted RNA recombination may be the main cause of generation of DI RNAs in PRRSV and probably in other arteriviruses.
