Classification

This is a description of an invertebrate virus at the species level.

ICTVdB Virus Code: 00.045.0.01.001. Virus accession number: 45001001. Obsolete virus code: 45.0.1.0.001; superceded accession number: 45010001.

Name, Synonyms and Lineage

Virus is the type species of the genus 00.045.0.01. Alphanodavirus; family 00.045. Nodaviridae.

Virion Properties

Morphology

Virions consist of a capsid. Virus capsid is not enveloped, round with icosahedral symmetry (T=3). The isometric capsid has a diameter of 30 nm. The capsid consists of 32 capsomers.

Morphologically aberrant forms are observed.
























Capsid structures, detailed structural and computational analysis are found in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) using VIPERdB, the VIrus Particle ExploreR 1nov.

Nucleic Acid

The Mr of the genome constitutes 20% of the virion by weight. The genome is segmented and consists of two segments of to three segments of linear positive-sense, single-stranded RNA. The complete genome is 4500 nucleotides long. Genome is sequenced, but only an estimate is available, complete sequence is 3100 nucleotides long.   Is sequenced, complete sequence is about 1400 nucleotides long. The 5'-end of the genome has a methylated nucleotide cap (on each segment). The 3'-terminus has no poly (A) tract. The multipartite genome is found in one type of particle only. Each virion contains a single copy of the genome.

GenBank records for nucleotide sequences; complete genome sequences.

Proteins

The viral genome encodes structural proteins.

Lipids

Lipids are undetermined (, however the amino terminus of the coat protein precursor, alpha, is blocked by an unidentified entity).

Genome Organization and Replication

By itself, genomic nucleic acid is infectious (both segments are required).

DELTA - DEscription Language for TAxonomy developed by Dr Mike Dallwitz, Toni Paine and Eric Zurcher, CSIRO Entomology, Canberra, Australia. ICTVdB - The Universal Virus Database, developed for the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses by Dr Cornelia Büchen-Osmond is written in DELTA. The virus descriptions in ICTVdB are coded by, or using data from experts in the field of virology or members ICTV. The character list is the underlying code. All virus descriptions are based on the character list and natural language translations are automatically generated and formatted for display on the Web from the descriptions in DELTA-format. The description has been generated automatically from DELTA files.
