Abstract

Background Hemaglutinin (H) protein of measles virus is veryimportant in the process of host cell infection. H protein is alsoable to induce specific antibodies which can neutralize measlesvirus and block the cell infection.Objective This study aimed to explore the nucleotide and aminoacid sequence differences between wild-type measles virus (G2,G3 and D9) with CAM-70, Schwarz and Edmonston-wt vaccinevirus.Methods The exctration and amplification of the gene wereconducted in the laboratory using biomolecular technology. Thegene and protein analysis were conducted using the bioinformatictechnology.Results The results showed that the differences in nucleotidesequences were highest between wild-type virus and CAM-70vaccine virus (76-77 nucleotides), followed by Schwarz (61-64nucleotides) and Edmonston (60-63 nucleotides). The differencesin amino acid sequences were highest between wild-type virusand CAM-70 (24-29 residues), followed by Schwarz (13-20residues) and Edmonston (12-19 residues).Conclusion The Indonesian wild-type measles virus was geneticallycloser to Schwarz vaccine virus than CAM-70 vaccine virus,hence the neutralizing antibodies generated by Schwarz vaccinewere more specific against Indonesian wild-type virus comparedto CAM-70 vaccine.

Abstract

Background Measles virus is a member of genus morbiliviruswhich belongs to family paramyxovirus with negative, single-strand RNA genome. RNA is packed by nucleocapsid (N) protein.The N protein is very important for RNA replication andtranslation. Abnormality in N protein will induce abnormality invirus replication.Objective This study aimed to explore the differences ofnucleotide sequence of N gene and amino acid sequences of Nprotein between wild-type measles virus (G2, G3 and D9) andvaccine virus (CAM-70, Schwarz and Edmonston-wt)Methods The exctraction and amplification of the gene wereconducted in the laboratory using biomolecular technology. Thegene and protein analysis were conducted using the bioinformatictechnology.Results The results showed that more differences were foundbetween nucleotide sequences of N gene of wild-type measlesvirus against CAM-70 vaccine virus (77 – 79 nucleotides)compared against Schwarz and Edmonston-wt vaccine virus (71-74 nucleotides). Likewise, more differences were also observedbetween amino acid sequences of N protein of wild-type measlesvirus against CAM-70 vaccine virus (18-24 residues) comparedagainst Schwarz and Edmonston-wt vaccine virus (17-23 residues).

Abstract

Background Measles virus has a negative, single strand RNAgenome which codes for six important structural proteins. Thegenes of the wild type measles virus have many variances hencethe nucleotide sequences of each wild type virus and vaccine virusare different. This differences lead to the antigenic differencesbetween wild type and vaccine virus.Objective The purpose of this research is to investigate thedifferences in the antigenic profiles on immunoblotting betweenwild type and vaccine virus.Results The analysis results are 1) the antigen ofCAM-70 vaccinevirus was less able in cross reacting with the antibodies from G2,G3, 09, CAM-70 and Schwarz; 2) The antibody aga inst CAM-70 was only able to cross react with antigens of N protein and afew of antigens ofF proteins; 3) The wild type virus were veryimmunogenic, hence the antibody titers were very high; 4) TheCAM-70 and MMR vaccine virus were less immunogenic, hencetheir antibody were very low; 5) The antibody responses thatalways occurred from all immunized mice serum were antibodyfor N and F proteins. However, the antibody against CAM-70vaccine virus was still able to react with wild type virus (G2, G3and 09).Conclusion All antigen-antibody reaction on immunoblottingresulted in different profiles especially between wild type virusand CAM-70 vaccine virus. Although CAM-70 vaccine virusshowed clear differences compared to G2, G3 and 09 genotypes,antibodies against CAM-70 were still able to cross react withantigens from other genotypes (G2, G3 and D9).

Abstract

Background Measles virus has a single, negative strand RNAgenome which codes 6 structural proteins: N, F, P M, H and L.Currently there are several variances in the nucleotide sequencesof N, F, M and H genes across wild type measles viruses, hencemeasles viruses can be categorized into clades and genotypes. Theantigenicity of the previous genotype of measles is different fromthe current genotype.Objective To determine the antigenic differences between wildtype measles virus and measles vaccine virus.Methods Analysis of the antigenic differences between wild typevirus (G2, G3 and D9) and vaccine virus (CAM-70 and Schwarz)was performed by immunizing mice with the respective viruses.The serum was then tested with micro-cross-neutralizationtechnique using the G2, G3, D9 and CAM-70 virus. Tests withcross ELISA examination technique were also performed usingthe same set of virus.Results Analysis of the cross neutralization test and cross ELISAshowed that the highest antigenicity reaction was found betweenwild type virus with antibody against wild type virus, while thelowest reaction was between wild type virus with antibody againstCAM-70.Conclusions We conclude that the antigenicity of antigenic proteinfrom wild type virus is higher than antigenicity of vaccine virusprotein. In addition, it was found that the antigenicity of proteinsfrom Schwarz vaccine virus was higher than proteins CAM-70vaccine virus.
