The enteric disease of swine recognized in the early 1970s in Europe was initially described
as “epidemic viral diarrhea” and is now termed “porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED)”. The …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the manipulation of clones of coronavirus and of
complementary DNAs (cDNAs) of defective-interfering (DI) RNAs to study coronavirus RNA …

A novel coronavirus (SCoV) is the etiological agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome
(SARS). SCoV-like viruses were isolated from Himalayan palm civets found in a live-animal …

Three human coronaviruses are known to exist: human coronavirus 229E (HCoV-229E),
HCoV-OC43 and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-associated coronavirus (SARS …

The etiology of acute respiratory tract illnesses is sometimes unclear due to limitations of
diagnostic tests or the existence of as-yet-unidentified pathogens. Here we describe the …

The sequence of the replicase gene of porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV) has been
determined. This completes the sequence of the entire genome of strain CV777, which was …

A previously undescribed coronavirus (CoV) is the etiologic agent responsible for severe
acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Using a panel of contiguous cDNAs that span the entire …

In order to identify the neutralizing epitope of the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV),
the spike protein region that is presumed to contain the virusneutralizing epitope was …

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has been endemic in most parts of the world since
its emergence in the 1970s. It infects the small intestine and intestinal villous cells, spreads …

Several studies suggest that the open reading frame 3 (ORF3) gene of porcine epidemic
diarrhea virus (PEDV) is related to viral infectivity and pathogenicity, but its function remains …
