Antigenic comparison of Canadian and US isolates of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus using monoclonal antibodies to the nucleocapsid protein.

Fifteen Canadian field isolates of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus from Quebec and Ontario were compared with 5 US PRRS virus (PRRSV) isolates and with the European Lelystad isolate using monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) SDOW17, EP147, and VO17 directed to the 15-kDa nucleocapsid protein of PRRSV. All Canadian and US isolates tested by indirect immunofluorescence were recognized by the 3 MAbs, and individual titers of MAbs towards Canadian and US PRRSV isolates were similar as well. In contrast, the Lelystad virus isolate reacted only with the SDOW17 MAb and showed no reactivity with either EP147 or VO17. The reactivity pattern with these MAbs suggests that the Canadian isolates of PRRSV tested are antigenically similar to US isolates of PRRSV, and that these North American isolates share highly conserved epitopes on the 15-kDa nucleocapsid protein that clearly differentiate them from the European Lelystad virus isolate.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV)-specific mAbs: supporting diagnostics and providing new insights into the antigenic properties of the virus

The porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the most important viral pathogens in the swine industry. Despite great efforts of pig holders, veterinarians, researchers and vaccine developers, the virus still causes major production losses. It is clear that efficient and correct monitoring and rational development of vaccines are crucial in the combat against this pathogen. PRRSV-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are essential tools for both diagnostic and research purposes. This study describes the production of PRRSV GP3-, GP5- and N-specific hybridomas and an extensive characterization of the mAbs. The N-specific mAbs generated in this study appear to be useful tools for diagnostics, as they were found to react with genetically very different PRRSV isolates and may serve to discriminate between European and American type PRRSV isolates. These mAbs also allowed detection of the PRRSV N protein in both formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections and frozen tissue sections of PRRSV-infected lungs, further illustrating their diagnostic value. Different neutralization assays pointed out that none of the GP3- and GP5-specific mAbs tested shows virus-neutralizing capacity. This is noteworthy, as these mAbs recognize epitopes in the predicted ectodomains of their target protein and since the GP5-specific antibodies specifically react with the antigenic region that corresponds to the "major neutralizing epitope" suggested for American type PRRSV. The current findings argue against an important role of the identified antigenic regions in direct antibody-mediated neutralization of European type PRRSV in vivo. However, it is also clear that findings concerning a specific PRRSV epitope cannot always be generalized, as the antigenic determinants and their biological properties may differ radically between different virus isolates.     

Differential reactivity of a monoclonal antibody directed to the membrane protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus.

A monoclonal antibody (2C12) against the 19 kDa membrane (M) protein of a Canadian isolate of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus was produced. By indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) cytoplasmic fluorescence was observed in infected cells, but the pattern of fluorescence was generally different and intensity was weaker than that observed using the nucleocapsid protein-directed monoclonal antibody SDOW17. When tested by IIF towards a total of 26 PRRS virus isolates from Canada, 122 isolates from the US and 13 isolates from Europe the 2C12 MAb reacted with all the North American isolates tested including the VR-2332 isolate and the vaccine (RespPRRS) isolate. However no reactivity was observed towards the European isolates tested including the Lelystad virus. This reactivity pattern suggests that the epitope recognized by this MAb on the M protein of PRRS virus appears highly conserved among North American isolates but absent or weakly expressed on European isolates of PRRS virus.     

Epitope specificity of monoclonal antibodies to the N-protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus determined by ELISA with synthetic peptides

In an attempt to develop an alternate to ELISAs using recombinant N-proteins as antigen for the sero-diagnosis of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infections of pigs I have measured the binding of nine anti-N-protein mAbs, which had been previously generated by various investigators, to overlapping peptides encompassing amino acids 19-70 of the N-proteins of the North American prototype (VR2332) and the European prototype (Lelystad virus, LV) of PRRSV. I also measured the binding of the mAbs to HerdChek ELISA plates coated with recombinant N-protein. All mAbs bound in an indirect ELISA to some of the peptides whether the mAbs had previously been reported to recognize continuous or discontinuous epitopes, but with different specificity and titer. Three mAbs bound with high titer to different linear epitopes located in amino acid segments 23-33, 31-50 and 43-56 and also with similar high titers to HerdChek plates. mAb SDOW17 bound with high titer to HerdChek plates but poorly to any of the peptides. In contrast, four mAbs bound with broad specificity to peptides containing an epitope(s) in amino acid segment 30-48, but poorly, or not at all, to HerdChek ELISA plates. Thus, this epitope is missing on the antigens of the HerdChek ELISA or is destroyed during immobilization of the antigens on the plate. A mAb to the N-protein of the closely related mouse arterivirus lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus bound to the same epitope. Abs that bound with broad specificity to an epitope(s) in the 30-50 amino acid segment were also detected by the peptide ELISA in sera of 25 field sera that were sero-positive in the HerdChek ELISA, but also in sera of pigs from two out of three herds tested that were sero-negative by this test.

Molecular characterization of recent Korean porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) viruses and comparison to other Asian PRRS viruses

Twenty-eight PRRS viruses (PRRSVs) isolated from various pig farms in Korea between 2002 and 2003 were sequenced for open-reading frame (ORF) 5 and/or full-length genome and compared with numerous PRRSVs reported from North America, Europe and Asia. All Korean isolates examined were genetically of the North American genotype. The ORF5 sequence of one isolate was identical to Ingelvac PRRS MLV vaccine virus. ORF5 nucleotide sequence divergence of the remaining 27 Korean PRRSVs from VR-2332, the prototype of the North American PRRSV and parental strain of the MLV vaccine virus, ranged from 1.3% to 12.9%, which corresponded to 2.0% to 14.9% divergence at the amino acid level, raising a concern on the efficacy of the MLV vaccine. Phylogenetic analyses of ORF5 and/or full-length sequences revealed that the Korean PRRSVs formed a clade distinct from PRRSVs reported from other Asian countries (China, Taiwan, Japan, and Thailand). Our study demonstrated that PRRSVs of the North American genotype were introduced to the Korean swine population some time ago and have evolved independently from PRRSV in other Asian countries, suggesting that geographic separation might influence the molecular evolution of PRRSV. This should be taken into consideration when a national PRRS prevention and control policy for international trade is established.

Identification of B-cell epitopes in the NSP1 protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) was divided into North American and European genotypes. NSP1 was an important non-structural protein of PRRSV, which was auto-cleaved from the replicase polyprotein into NSP1α and NSP1β subunits and played an important role in the immune suppression. In this study, six monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the recombinant PRRSV NSP1, expressed in Escherichia coli system, were screened out and identified. Western blot and IFA results indicated that 4 out of 6 MAbs recognized the recombinant NSP1α and 2 MAbs recognized NSP1β. Epitope mapping results indicated that MAb 4H2 recognized the linear epitopes E(54)EPLRW(59) in NSP1α, MAbs (2G5, 3E11 and 4D4) recognized the epitopes H(157)VLTNLP(163) in NSP1α, and MAbs 3C7 and 1H7 reacted with the epitopes 185aa to 232aa in NSP1β. Protein sequence alignment of NSP1 indicated E(54)EPLRW(59) was conserved in all North American PRRSV strains, whereas European type strains has variable amino acids in this region. The epitope H(157)VLTNLP(163) was relatively conserved among all PRRSV strains, except for a L162→S162 change in European type strains. The epitope 185-232aa was variable among North American PRRSV strains. These results may facilitate future investigations into the function of NSP1 of PRRSV and diagnostic methods for PRRSV infection.

Differentiation between porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus isolates by restriction fragment length polymorphism of their ORFs 6 and 7 genes.

Three distinct antigenic profiles were identified by comparing the reactivities of 15 Canadian field isolates, the attenuated U.S. vaccine (Ingelvac MLV) strain and 2 European reference strains (Lelystad and Weybridge) of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) by indirect immunofluorescence with a set of 4 monoclonal antibodies to the nucleocapsid (N) protein and 2 other to the matrix (M) protein. In the present study, 9 Canadian isolates for which the sequences were determined appeared closely related to 2 U.S. reference strains (ATCC VR-2332 and ATCC VR-2385) with amino acid identities varying between 90 to 98% for the M and N proteins; substitutions in the nucleotide sequences were distributed randomly throughout the ORFs 6 and 7 genes, and most were 3rd base silent mutations. In comparison, more than 30% divergence was demonstrated with the Lelystad virus. Furthermore, differentiation between North American and European isolates, and between field isolates and the MLV strain could be achieved by cutting PCR-amplified products encompassing both ORFs 6 and 7 genes with 4 restriction endonucleases. When taken individually, BsaJI and AluI were the more appropriate restriction enzymes for distinguishing the vaccine strain from field isolates. The results obtained suggest that the restriction fragment length polymorphism of the genomic region covering the ORFs 6 and 7 genes may be a valuable tool to differentiate among PRRSV isolates.     

Genetic variation and phylogenetic analyses of the ORF5 gene of acute porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus isolates

Swine herds in the US have experienced recent outbreaks of a severe form of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (designated acute or atypical PRRS) characterized by abortion and high mortality in pregnant sows. Most of the affected herds had been vaccinated with modified live-vaccines (MLVs) against PRRS. To explore the possible mechanism of the emergence of acute PRRS, the open reading frame 5 (ORF5) gene encoding the major envelope protein (GP5) of acute PRRSV isolates was characterized. The complete ORF5 gene of eight acute PRRSV isolates from herds experiencing acute PRRS outbreaks in Iowa and North Carolina was amplified and sequenced. Sequence analyses revealed that these acute PRRSV isolates shared 88-95% nucleotide and 88-96% amino acid sequence identities to each other, 87-97% nucleotide and 84-96% amino acid sequence identities with other North American PRRSV isolates and the MLVs. Most of the amino acid substitutions locate in the putative signal sequence and two short hypervariable regions at the amino terminus. The ORF5 gene sequence of the acute PRRSV isolate 98-37120-2 from a non-vaccinated swine herd in Iowa is very closely related to that of the RespPRRS MLV, with 97% nucleotide and 96% amino acid sequence identities. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all eight acute PRRSV isolates are clustered within the North American genotype. Several minor branches that are not associated with geographic origins were also identified within the North American genotype. One acute PRRSV isolate (98-37120-2) is clustered with the RespPRRS MLV and several Danish isolates that were confirmed to be derived from the RespPRRS MLV. The ORF5 gene sequences of other seven acute isolates are more related to those of several earlier PRRSV isolates and the PrimePac MLV than to that of the RespPRRS MLV. Our results showed that the acute PRRSV isolates analyzed in this study differed from each other in ORF5 genes, although they all clustered within the North American genotype. The data from this study do not fully support the hypothesis that the emergence of acute PRRS is due to reversion of MLVs to a pathogenic phenotype, as only one of the eight acute isolates was shown to be very closely related to the RespPRRS MLV.

Genetics and geographical variation of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in Thailand

The Thai isolates of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) were obtained from the Chulalongkorn University-Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (CU-VDL). Virus isolation was confirmed by immunoperoxidase monolayer assay (IPMA) using SDOW-17. The virus genotype was determined using nested multiplex RT-PCR (nm RT-PCR) of ORF 1b. The nm RT-PCR was able to detect at least 10TCID50/ml of PRRSV. Of 137 Thai isolates, 66.42% belonged to the European (EU) genotype and 33.58% to the North American (US) genotype. ORF5 products of the eight US strains (00CS1, 01NP1, 01UD6, 02CB13, 02KK1, 02PB1, 02SP2 and 02SP3) and the six EU strains (01CB1, 01RB1, 02BR1, 02CB12, 02SB2 and 03RB1) were sequenced for genetic variation analysis. The US strains of the Thai isolates are clustered within the same group and are more closely related to the IAF-EXP91 from Canada (89-90% nucleotide identity), whereas the EU strains were very similar to the EU prototype, Lelystad virus (87-97.5% nucleotide identity). The ORF5 nucleotide identities within the US genotype tested in this study compared to the US prototype, VR-2332 varied from 83.7 to 85.2%, whereas 83.5-85.5% amino acid identities were found. Based on the phylogenetic tree, each pair of the Thai isolates (01NP1 and 02KK1, 00CS1 and 01UD6, and 01CB1 and 01RB1) was identical despite they were collected from different provinces. Therefore, there was no geographic influence on the spreading of PRRSV in Thailand. Interestingly, 02CB12 (EU genotype) shared over 99% similarity of the ORF5 nucleotide sequence and 98.6% of amino acid identity with the European vaccine, Porcillis (AF378819). However, modified live virus vaccines for PRRSV have not yet been used in the swine population in Thailand. The results suggested that both US and EU genotypes exist in Thailand, genetic variation does occur in both genotypes, and the sources of the viruses appear to be from Canada and Northern Europe, respectively. In addition, the spreading of PRRSV in Thailand might be due to introducing infected replacement pigs or infected semen into the farm.
