Bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BoHV-4) is a widespread agent of ruminants, especial ly cattle. Cattle populations of all continents are infected by this virus. BoHV-4 is often isolated fromAuthor: László Egyed. Introduction. BHV-4 is a member of the Herpesvirus causing reproductive disease in cattle in the form of endometritis, vulvovaginitis, associated abortion and disease is however, subclinical, hence its common name of “passenger virus”.

The virus replicates within mucosal cells and then invades the mononuclear cells, causing generalised infection and crossing the placenta. Bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) is a virus of the family Herpesviridae and the subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae, known to cause several diseases worldwide in cattle, including rhinotracheitis, vaginitis, balanoposthitis, abortion, conjunctivitis, and -1 is also a contributing factor in shipping fever, also known as bovine respiratory disease (BRD).Family: Herpesviridae.

Molecular biology of bovine herpesvirus type 4. Vet. Microbiol., Bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BHV-4) is a ubiquitous virus of cattle. Its genome is a kb double-stranded DNA consisting of a unique central part (L-DNA) flanked at both ends by tandem repeats called polyrepetitive DNA (prDNA or Cited by: The pathology of bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BHV-4) infection was studied in cats, rabbits and guinea pigs.

Twenty kittens, twenty-two rabbits and ten guinea pigs, some treated with glucocorticoid were inoculated with a BHV-4 strain of feline origin, via various routes of Cited by: Of these samples, 87 were bovine herpesvirus type-4 (BHV-4) seropositive and 75 were BHV-4 seronegative.

The prevalence of BHV-4 was determined as % amongst RB daily cows. In. The aim of this document is to review of the biology of Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), with particular regard to the characteristics, attributes and properties of the virus that relate to the health and safety of humans, to host organisms and to the environment.

This review is divided into four main sections. Host range and Disease provide anFile Size: KB. Findings. Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4), a member of the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily, was first isolated in Europe from respiratory and ocular diseases by Bartha and colleagues [] and later in the United States by Mohanty and colleagues [].BoHV-4 has been isolated from a variety of samples and cells from healthy cattle and from cattle with abortion, metritis, pneumonia, diarrhea, respiratory Cited by: 5.

Bovine alphaherpesvirus 2 (BoHV2) is a virus of the family Herpesviridae that causes two diseases in cattle, bovine mammillitis and pseudo-lumpy skin 2 is similar in structure to human herpes simplex virus. Pseudo-lumpy skin disease was originally discovered in South Africa where a similar but more serious disease caused by a poxvirus, lumpy skin disease, is also : incertae sedis.

Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a gammaherpesvirus with a Worldwide distribution in cattle and is often isolated from the uterus of animals with postpartum metritis or pelvic inflammatory disease.

Virus strain adaptation to an organ, tissue or cell type is an important issue for the pathogenesis of disease. To explore the mechanistic role of viral strain variation for uterine disease, the Cited by: Recently, bovine herpesvirus type 5 (BoHV-5) and bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BoHV-4) have been identified to be associated with genital disease.

In this study, the presence of the genome of BoHV-1, BoHV-4 and BoHV-5 in bovine semen of Argentinean and international origin was analyzed by Cited by: 7. Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) has been isolated from a variety of samples and cells from healthy cattle and from cattle that have experienced abortion or affected by metritis, pneumonia, diarrhoea, respiratory infection, and mammary pustular dermatitis [].The virus was first isolated in Europe from cattle with respiratory and ocular diseases by Bartha et al.

Pathogen Characteristics Top of page. BHV-1 belongs to the family Herpesviridae, subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae, genus -1 is an enveloped virus with an icosahedric capsid made of capsomeres (Schwyzer and Ackermann, ).BHV-1 is a double-stranded DNA virus, kbp in size (Mayfield et al., ; Wyler et al., ).At least ten glycoproteins are.

Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4), a member of the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily, was first isolated in Europe from respiratory and ocular diseases by Bartha and colleagues [] and later in the United States by Mohanty and colleagues [].BoHV-4 has been isolated from a variety of samples and cells from healthy cattle and from cattle with abortion, metritis, pneumonia, diarrhea, respiratory Cited by: 5.

Twenty-eight Belgian field isolates of bovine herpesvirus 4 (BHV-4) coming from a variety of clinical diseases have been studied by restriction analysis and Southern blot hybridization. The unique central part of the genome was very well conserved among strains; only one variation in a restriction site was detected in 3 isolates which contain an additional EcoRI site also present in the LVR Cited by: The bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) protein VP8 is present, in large amounts, in the tegument of virions.

Franceschi V, Capocefalo A, Ravanetti L, Vanderplasschen A, Gillet L, Cavirani S, van Santen VL, Donofrio G: Bovine herpesvirus 4 immediate early 2 (Rta) gene is an essential gene and is duplicated in bovine herpesvirus 4 isolate U.

Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a useful model for the human pathogenic gammaherpesviruses Epstein-Barr virus and Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus. Although genome manipulations of this virus have been greatly facilitated by the cloning of the BoHV-4 strain as a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC), the lack of a complete genome sequence for this strain Cited by:   Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) is a major component of the bovine respiratory disease complex.

Animals latently infected with BHV-1 are potential sources of BHV-1 infection since the reactivated virus in the TG can be transported back to the nose/eye to be shed in nasal and ocular secretions.

BHV-5, which is closely related to BHV-1, causes severe neurological disease in calves.Protein Composition of the Bovine Herpesvirus Virion Kaley A.
