The latter ORF probably encodes the amino-terminal part of the L (polymerase) protein. The former ORF potentially encodes a 122 amino acid protein. The location of this ORF as well as the size and deduced structure of the translation product indicate that it represents a homologue of the non-virion (NV) protein of the related infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV). Antisera raised against prokaryotically expressed NV protein of VHSV and IHNV were used to detect NV expression in VHSV- and IHNV-infected cells by Western Blot and immunofluorescence analyses. We present here the sequence of the VHSV NV gene and demonstrate the presence of IHNV and VHSV NV proteins in virus-infected cells.", }
