    Optimizing Foreign Gene Expression in Recombinant Fowl Adenovirus 9 Vectors by James Ackford A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Pathobiology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © James Ackford, August, 2015 ABSTRACT Optimizing Foreign Gene Expression in Recombinant Fowl Adenovirus 9 Vectors James Ackford Advisors: University of Guelph, 2015 Dr. Éva Nagy and Dr. Peter Krell Our laboratory focuses on the molecular characterization of a non-pathogenic strain of fowl adenovirus (FAdV) 9 and its development as a versatile vaccine vector platform. The objectives of this study were to optimize transgene expression by recombinant viruses. High expression promoters and a post-transcriptional regulatory element were evaluated for their ability to improve expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in recombinant FAdVs. These findings were compared to our current system that employs the human cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter to express a transgene. EGFP expression was assessed by fluorometry and Western blots. A synthetic CMV enhancer/chicken β-actin (CAG) promoter and the human elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1α) promoter significantly increased expression of EGFP compared to the CMV promoter. However, expression was significantly decreased in the presence of woodchuck hepatitis virus post-transcriptional regulatory element (WPRE). The results provide novel insight into avian vaccine design and optimization of transgene expression by FAdV vectors. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank my co-advisors, Drs. Éva Nagy and Peter Krell, for the continued support and guidance over the years. Their advice, both scientific and personal, has helped me grow as a researcher and professional.

    viruses Article Discovery and Characterization of Actively Replicating DNA and Retro-Transcribing Viruses in Lower Vertebrate Hosts Based on RNA Sequencing Xin-Xin Chen, Wei-Chen Wu and Mang Shi * School of Medicine, Sun Yat-sen University, Shenzhen 518107, China; [email protected] (X.-X.C.); [email protected] (W.-C.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In a previous study, a metatranscriptomics survey of RNA viruses in several important lower vertebrate host groups revealed huge viral diversity, transforming the understanding of the evolution of vertebrate-associated RNA virus groups. However, the diversity of the DNA and retro-transcribing viruses in these host groups was left uncharacterized. Given that RNA sequencing is capable of revealing viruses undergoing active transcription and replication, we collected previously generated datasets associated with lower vertebrate hosts, and searched them for DNA and retro-transcribing viruses. Our results revealed the complete genome, or “core gene sets”, of 18 vertebrate-associated DNA and retro-transcribing viruses in cartilaginous fishes, ray- finned fishes, and amphibians, many of which had high abundance levels, and some of which showed systemic infections in multiple organs, suggesting active transcription or acute infection within the host. Furthermore, these new findings recharacterized the evolutionary history in the families Hepadnaviridae, Papillomaviridae, and Alloherpesviridae, confirming long-term virus–host codivergence relationships for these virus groups.

Therefore, the animal’s susceptibility to some virus can serve as early warning signs of potential human virus diseases. Moreover, the wild animal virome of this biome is unknown. Based on this scenario, high-throughput sequencing contributes a robust tool for the identification of known and unknown virus species in this environment. In the present study, faeces samples from cerrado birds (Psittacara leucophthalmus, Amazona aestiva, and Sicalis flaveola) and mammals (Didelphis albiventris, Sapajus libidinosus, and Galictis cuja) were collected at the Veterinary Hospital, University of Brasília. Viral nucleic acid was extracted, submitted to random amplification, and sequenced by Illumina HiSeq platform.

  • Wildlife Virology: Emerging Wildlife Viruses of Veterinary and Zoonotic Importance
    Wildlife Virology: Emerging Wildlife Viruses of Veterinary and Zoonotic Importance Course #: VME 6195/4906 Class periods: MWF 4:05-4:55 p.m. Class location: Veterinary Academic Building (VAB) Room V3-114 and/or Zoom Academic Term: Spring 2021 Instructor: Andrew Allison, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Veterinary Virology Department of Comparative, Diagnostic, and Population Medicine College of Veterinary Medicine E-mail: [email protected] Office phone: 352-294-4127 Office location: Veterinary Academic Building V2-151 Office hours: Contact instructor through e-mail to set up an appointment Teaching Assistants: NA Course description: The emergence of viruses that cause disease in animals and humans is a constant threat to veterinary and public health and will continue to be for years to come. The vast majority of recently emerging viruses that have led to explosive outbreaks in humans are naturally maintained in wildlife species, such as influenza A virus (ducks and shorebirds), Ebola virus (bats), Zika virus (non-human primates), and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronaviruses (bats). Such epidemics can have severe psychosocial impacts due to widespread morbidity and mortality in humans (and/or domestic animals in the case of epizootics), long-term regional and global economic repercussions costing billions of dollars, in addition to having adverse impacts on vulnerable wildlife populations. Wildlife Virology is a 3-credit (3 hours of lecture/week) undergraduate/graduate-level course focusing on pathogenic viruses that are naturally maintained in wildlife species which are transmissible to humans, domestic animals, and other wildlife/zoological species. In this course, we will cover a comprehensive and diverse set of RNA and DNA viruses that naturally infect free-ranging mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.

  • The Production of Avian Vaccines to Increase Supply Security
    1 Continuous cell lines from the muscovy duck as replacement for primary cells in 2 the production of avian vaccines to increase supply security 3 4 Abstract 5 6 Veterinary vaccines contribute to food security, interrupt zoonotic transmissions, and help to maintain 7 overall health in livestock. Although vaccines are usually cost-effective, their adoption depends on a 8 multitude of factors. Because poultry vaccines are usually given to birds with a short life span, very low 9 production cost per dose is one important challenge. Other hurdles are to ensure a consistent and 10 reliable supply of very large number of doses, and to have flexible production processes to 11 accommodate a range of different pathogens and dosage requirements. Most poultry vaccines are 12 currently being produced on primary avian cells derived from chicken or waterfowl embryos. This 13 production system is associated with high costs, logistic complexities, rigid intervals between harvest and 14 production, and supply limitations. We investigated whether the continuous cell lines Cairina retina and 15 CR.pIX may provide a substrate independent of primary cell cultures or embryonated eggs. Viruses 16 examined for replication in these cell lines are strains associated with, or contained in vaccines against 17 egg drop syndrome, Marek's disease, Newcastle disease, avian influenza, infectious bursal disease and 18 Derzsy's disease. Each of the tested viruses required the development of unique conditions for 19 replication that are described here and can be used to generate material for in vivo efficacy studies and 20 to accelerate transfer of the processes to larger production volumes.
