Abstract:The New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) was able to synthesize a small RNA (leader RNA) approximately 70 bases in length similar to the leader RNA synthesized in vitro by the genetically distinct Indiana serotype of VSV. Also, the New Jersey leader RNA contained the same 5'-terminal sequence, ppA-C-G, as the Indiana leader RNA and had a very similar base composition, with 42% AMP, 16% CMP, 18.6% GMP, and 23.4% UMP. The 3'terminal sequence of the VSV New Jersey genome RNA was determined and … Show more
“…The RNA-synthetic activity of purified RNP of VSV has also been demonstrated in various serotypes in addition to the widely used Indiana serotype (43,54,78). Similar activity has also been shown for rabies virus (76,115), although this activity is significantly lower than that of VSV.…”

“…Reaction mixtures were incubated with 0.1 mg/pl of purified VSV for 6 hr at 300. The reaction was terminated by the addition of SDS to 0.5% and the product RNA was directly extracted with phenol and purified by Sephadex G-50 chromatography, oligo(dT) cellulose chromatography, and electrophoresis on a 20% polyacrylamide slab gel as previously described (8,9). The leader RNA was recovered from the gel as described previously (10).…”

“…The reaction mixture was incubated at 30°for 6 hr with 0.1 mg purified virions of clonally purified Ogden strain of New Jersey serotype of VSV. RNA synthesis was terminated by addition of SDS to 0.5% and the product RNA purified by phenol extraction and Sephadex G-50 chromatography (9). Poly(A) containing mRNA was removed by oligo(dT)-cellulose chromatography and the leader RNA isolated from nonpoly(A)-containing product RNA by electrophoresis on a 20% polyacrylamide slab gel (140 V for 16 hr) as described previously (6,9).…”

“…Keller, Maxam and Gilbert (11). New Jersey leader RNA was synthesized in the presence of [3H] UTP and purified as described previously (9). The 5'terminal phosphates were removed with alkaline phosphatase and the terminus was labeled with [y32p] ATP using polynucleotide kinase (11).…”

Sequence for the leader RNA Synthesized by the New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus is presented and its complementary sequence representing the 3'-terminal sequence of the genome RNA is deduced. Comparison with the leader RNA sequence of the serologically distinct Indiana strain reveals that the 3'-terminal region of the genomes of two viruses is highly conserved.
