High pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) has impacted poultry and wild birds globally. The number of H5 HPAI virus (HPAIV) infection cases in Hokkaido (Northern Japan) was high the last two seasons, contributing to spillover resident poultry. Therefore, HPAIVs mammals winter 2022–2023 2023–2024 were monitored viruses phylogenetically, antigenically, pathogenetically characterized. Thirty HPAIV isolates subtyped pathotyped by sequencing hemagglutinin (HA) gene viruses. Phylogenetic analysis...
Global dispersion of high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI), especially that caused by H5 clade 2.3.4.4, has threatened poultry industries and, potentially, human health. An HPAI virus, A/northern pintail/Hokkaido/M13/2020 (H5N8) (NP/Hok/20) belonging to 2.3.4.4b, was isolated from a fecal sample collected at lake in Hokkaido, Japan where migratory birds rested, October 2020. In the phylogenetic trees all eight gene segments, NP/Hok/20 fell into cluster European isolates 2020, but...
The Hofmeister series has long been of both scientific and technological importance because it allows systematic predictions the interaction between ions molecules to be made. In this work, three different polyoxometalate (POM) anions lipid monolayers were used investigate interplay electrostatic hydrophobic interactions. We Keggin-type POMs with charges ([PW12O40]3–, [SiW12O40]4–, [H2W12O40]6–) eliminate any effects morphology focus on charge hydrophobicity POM anions. adsorb onto cationic...
ABSTRACT Influenza A viruses with fewer amino acids in the neuraminidase (NA) stalk domain are primarily isolated from chickens rather than wild ducks, indicating that a shortened NA is considered an adaptation marker of avian influenza (AIVs) to chickens. Experimental passages H7N7 nonpathogenic AIV (rgVac2-P0) resulted highly pathogenic variant (Vac2-P3L4) 34-amino-acid deletion stalk, encompassing five potential N -glycosylation sites. To investigate how acid truncation and...
Starch, unlike hydrosoluble glycogen particles, aggregates into insoluble, semicrystalline granules. In photosynthetic eukaryotes, the transition to starch accumulation occurred after plastid endosymbiosis from a preexisting cytosolic host metabolism network. This involved recruitment of debranching enzyme chlamydial pathogen origin. The latter is thought be responsible for removing misplaced branches that would otherwise yield water-soluble polysaccharide. We now report implication in...
Abstract ZnS and CdZnS (a mixed crystal phase of CdS) were formed using the open-air CVD method. Cadmium diethyldithiocarbamate (C 10 H 20 CdN 2 S 4 ) zinc ZnN used as source materials for CdS ZnS, respectively. By changing ratio materials, it was found that bandgap lattice constant film continuously without a miscibility gap. Furthermore, obtained films less than reported (3.68 eV) due to incorporation oxygen. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed increase Zn in generated crystalline...
We report the structure-dependent effects of polyoxometalate (POM), a bioactive cluster material, on liposome collapse activity. Structure and lacunary state POM were found to have critical role govern efficiency kinetics model cell membranes. Keggin-type demonstrated fast activity, but with different efficiencies dependent state. Furthermore, an increase in size changed its kinetic properties, from delayed This transition is discussed terms energy barrier during process.
Abstract Polybasic amino acid residues at the hemagglutinin (HA) cleavage site are insufficient to induce highly pathogenic phenotype of avian influenza viruses in chickens. In our previous study, an H7N7 virus named Vac2sub-P0, which is non-pathogenic despite carrying polybasic acids HA site, was passaged chick air sacs and a with high intravenous pathogenicity, namely, Vac2sub-P3, obtained. Intranasal infection Vac2sub-P3 only partially lethal chickens; therefore, this further chicken...
