Recent studies showed that white spot syndrome virus(WSSV)isolates from different geographic locations share a high genetic similarity except the variable regions in ORF23/24 and ORF14/15,and variable number of tandem repeats(VNTR)within ORF94.In this study,genotyping was performed according to these three variable regions among WSSV isolates collected during 1998/1999 from Southern China.These WSSV isolates contain a deletion of 1168,5657,5898,9316 and 11093 bp,respectively in the variable region ORF23/24compared with WSSV-TW,and a deletion of 4749 or 5622 bp in the variable region ORF14/15 relative to TH-96-II.Four types of repeat units(RUs)(6,8,9 and 13 RUs)in ORF94 were detected in these isolates,with the shortest 6 RUs as the most prevalent type.Our results provide important information for a better understanding of the spatio-temporal transmission mode and the WSSV genetic evolution lineage.

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), a unique member within the virus family Nimaviridae, is the most notorious aquatic virus infecting shrimp and other crustaceans and has caused enormous economic losses in the shrimp farming industry worldwide. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of WSSV morphogenesis, structural proteins, and replication is essential for developing prevention measures of this serious parasite. The viral genome is approximately 300kb and contains more than 180 open reading frames (ORF). However, most of proteins encoded by these ORF have not been characterized. Due to the importance of WSSV structural proteins in the composition of the virion structure, infection process and interaction with host cells, knowledge of structural proteins is essential to understanding WSSV entry and infection as well as for exploring effective prevention measures. This review article summarizes mainly current investigations on WSSV structural proteins including the relative quantities, localization, function and protein-protein interactions. Traditional proteomic studies of 1D or 2D gel electrophoresis separations and mass spectrometry (MS) followed by database searches have identified a total of 39 structural proteins. Shotgun proteomics and iTRAQ were initiated to identify more structural proteins. To date, it is estimated that WSSV is assembled by at least 59 structural proteins, among them 35 are defined as the envelope fraction (including tegument proteins) and 9 as nucleocapsid proteins. Furthermore, the interaction within several major structural proteins has also been investigated. This identitification and characterization of WSSV protein components should help in the understanding of the viral assembly process and elucidate the roles of several major structural proteins.

Objective:To investigate the protection mechanism of rosavin in learning and memory ability in subacute aged rats in-duced by D-galactose. Methods:Totally 48 SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group, model group, positive drug group, and rosavin group respectively at the dose of 6, 12 and 24 mg·g-1 . Except the normal group, the other rats were with neck subcuta-neous injection of D-galactose 120 mg · kg-1 · d-1 . After 4-week drug administration, the learning and memory ability of rats was studied using Morris water maze. PO2 , SaO2 , the activity of superoxide dismutase ( SOD) , catalase( CAT) and glutathione peroxidase ( GSH-Px) and the content of O2 and malonaldehyde( MDA) of rats in vivo were determined at the end of the experiment. Results:The aged rats treated with rosavin(12 or 24 mg·kg-1·d-1) were with significant shortened latent period in Morris water maze(P<0. 01 or P<0. 05), and with reduced total swimming distance and error angle. Meanwhile, rosavin(6,12 or 24 mg·kg-1·d-1) could im-prove the concentration of O2 ,PO2 and SaO2 , the activity of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in brain, while decrease the content of MDA with certain dose-effect relationship. Conclusion:Rosavin can inhibit D-galactose induced learning and memory decrease in rats, and the effect may be related with the increase of oxygen content, enzyme activity protection of SOD, CAT, MAO and GSH-Px and decrease of MDA generation.
