Figure 4From: The genome and occlusion bodies of marine Penaeus monodon nudivirus (PmNV, also known as MBV and PemoNPV) suggest that it should be assigned to a new nudivirus genus that is distinct from the terrestrial nudivirusesThe polyhedrin protein matrix and occlusion bodies (OBs) production of recombinant AcMNPV- polh (PmNV) and wild-type AcMNPV in Sf9 at 3 days post-infection. (A) Photomicrographs of Sf9 cells infected with recombinant AcMNPV-polh (PmNV), wild-type AcMNPV, recombinant AcMNPV-vp28 (WSSV) as non-occluded control and non-infected cells (Normal cells). Examples of cells producing polyhedrin protein matrix and OBs are indicated by arrows. (B) Photomicrographs of purified polyhedrin protein matrix and AcMNPV OBs. Scale bars are 20 μm.Back to article page
