Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus S1 gene
Active
Description
Veterinary Medicine:
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is an enveloped, positive-stranded RNA virus belonging to the Coronaviridae family of viruses. It is an extremely contagious enteric pathogen of pigs and causes porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED). Symptoms of PED include watery diarrhea in pigs that are a few weeks old, dehydration, vomiting, and anorexia. PED has a high morbidity and mortality rate in young piglets. PEDV was first identified in Belgium in 1978, but has caused serious outbreaks since then in Asian pig farming countries including China. Significant outbreaks of PEDV have also occurred in the United States, Canada, Taiwan and Europe. The spike or S protein is one of seven proteins encoded by the 28 kB and resides on the outer surface of the virion. There are two subunits of the S protein which are the N-terminal subunit S1 and the C-terminal subunit S2. These two subunits must be cleaved in order for the virus to attach and enter the host cell. The functional receptor for PEDV has been identified as porcine aminopeptidase N. There are no vaccines currently available on the market. PMID: 27036203
