Abstract

Avian influenza viruses (AIV) subtype H5N1 isolated from waterfowls in West Java pose the known characteristic of highly pathogenic strains, with polybasic amino acid sequence of cleavage site QRERRRKKR and QRESRRKKR. This research aimed to analyze the important domains of hemagglutinin (HA) gene of those isolates. Fragment of HA gene was amplified using RT-PCR method with specifically-designed primer pairs and sequenced using dideoxy termination method with ABI automatic sequencer (Applied Biosystems). Multiple alignment of nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences were analyzed using ClustalW of MEGA-3.1 program. Some of biological domains of HA, i.e. antigenic sites, receptor binding pocket, and glycosylation sites of the isolates were polymorphic. The viruses also pose conserved glutamine (Q) and glisin (G) residues at the known receptor binding site, at the position 222 and 224 respectively. This findings clearly show that all AIV subtype H5N1 isolaed from waterfowl preservesthe α-2,3NeuAcGal avian receptor specificity.

Abstract

Identification of pathotype of Avian Influenza Virus (AIV) subtype H5N1 isolates is very important. Thisresearch aimed to identify the pathotype of AIV subtype H5N1 isolated from household waterfowls in West Javabased on molecular markers of amino acid sequences of the Hemagglutinin (HA) cleavage site. Fragments of HAgenes of 21 isolates were amplified using RT-PCR with a primer pair that flanking the cleavage site region, andsequenced with dideoxy-termination method with ABI automatic sequencer (Applied Biosystems). Multiple alignmentof nucleotide and their deduced amino acid sequence were analyzed using ClustalW from MEGA 3.1 program.The result shows that all H5N1 isolates (21 isolates) possess polybasic cleavage sites with 2 patterns ofamino acid sequence, i.e QRERRRKKR (20 isolates) and QRESRRKKR (1 isolate). This finding indicates that all ofthe viruses isolated in this research were of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) strains.Keywords: cleavage site, waterfowls, HPAI

Abstract

Heart rot on Acacia mangium Willd. forest stand is critical especially for mechanical or construction wood based purposes. Failure on understanding the nature and the way it get established into the tree stem may cause high economic consequences.Anticipating such a worse condition, studies on cull factor in relation to age was initiated. Eventually the study is aimed at healthy cutting cycles of the clear and purposely stand establishment. The study had been carried out at BKPH Parung Panjang, KPH Bogor. Following the cull factor measurement technique combined with the pathological rotation estimation procedures, it was found that the healthy volume was 0.0623 m and the cull factor was 31.25 %.The figures were at the age of nine years. Therefore, the pathological rotation cycle for the A. mangium stand in the area could be fitted at eight years, as being adopted so far.This is true, when the plantation is established for the production of wood, provided that the tending operation is optimal. Applying the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Health Monitoring (FHM) indices, the general performance of the A. mangium forest stand in Parung Panjang is found to be in healthy criteria. The damage indices for all stand ages investigated varied from 2.77 (lowest) to 5.16 (highest) as compared to the 21.18 value, the possible highest FHM tree index.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of media compositions on the production of β-mannanase by Nonomuraea sp.ID06-379. The study was focused on the influence of carbon, nitrogen,phosphorus and detergents on β-mannanase synthesis through manipulating media compositions on production medium. The results indicated that for carbon sources, locus bean gum (0.745 ± 0.036 U/ml) showed maximum mannanase activity. Malt extract was the best nitrogen source for producing β-mannanase (1.075 ± 0.006 U/ml),(NH4)2HPO4 as phosphate source (1.733 ± 0.026 U/ml) and Tween 80 (1.145 ± 0.003 U/ml) as surfactants effect on increasing permeability of bacterial cell membrane, enhancing membrane transport and excretion of extracellular enzymes into the production media. The results showed that 1% malt extract, 0.5% locus bean gum and 0.05% (NH4)2HPO4 were good substances for nitrogen source, carbon source and phosphate respectively. The highest production of β-mannanase by Nonomuraea sp. ID06-379 (5.33 U/mg) was reached in the medium optimization (Vogel’s minimal medium) contained the following ingredients: 0.5% locus bean gum, 1% malt extract and 0.05% (NH4)2HPO4, under submerged fermentation with shaking at 120 rpm and 28 C for 2 days incubation.
