흰 불나방 핵 다각체바이러스(Hyphantria cunea nuclear Palyhedrosis virus: HcNPV) 다각체 단백질 유전자포함 절편의 탐색과 클로닝을 행하였다. Autographa cahfornica NPV EeoRI-I 절편 (약 7.3 kb), Bombyx mori NPV PstI-F 절편 (약 7 kb) 및 합성 oligonucleotide ( 3D-mer) 를 probe로 한 southern hybridization을 행하여 HcNPV PstI - L 절편 (5.3 kb)을 탐색하고, pUC18을 이용하여 E. coli에 형질전환시켜 클로닝하였다. 클로닝한 plasmid의 EeoRI, SaIl, Kpnl, HindIII, SacI 및 AvaI의 제한효소지도를 작성하고 pHeP-L(8.0 kb)이라 명명히였으며, 이를 다시 pHcP-Ll(4.7 kb), pHcP-L2(7.1 kb), pHcP-L3(5.3 kb), pHcP-L4(4.2 kb) 및 pHeP-L5(4.5 kb)로 subeloning 하였다.
The polyhedrin gene-containing DNA fragment of Hyphantria cunea nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HcNPV) was localized by southern hybridization with Autographa california CPA EcoRI-I fragment (7.3 kb), Bombyx mori NPV PatI-F fragment (7 kb) and synthetic oligonucleotide(30-mer) as probes. the PstI-L(5.3 kb) fragment of HcNPV was cloned to E. coli and the plasmid of the fragment was named as pHcP-L(8.0 kb). The pHcP-L was physically mapped and subcloned to E. coli as pHcP-L1(4.7 kb), pHcP-L2(7.1 kb), pHcP-L3(5.3 kb), pHcP-L4(4.2 kb) and pHcP-L5(4.5 kb).
