MARC-145, an African green monkey kidney cell line that is highly permissive to PRRSV, was used for virus propagation and maintained in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI)-1640 medium (Gibco® RPMI 1640, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with heat-inactivated 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Life Technologies), 2 mM L-glutamine, and 100X Antibiotic-Antimycotic (Anti-anti, Life Technologies) containing 100 IU/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin, and 0.25 μg/mL Fungizone® (amphotericin B) in a 5% CO2 humidified chamber at 37 °C. In this study, this medium is referred to as complete RPMI (cRPMI) medium. Two infectious clones of Type II PRRSV strains, JA142 and VR2332 [52 (link), 53 (link)], were re-cloned into a vector (pOptiVEC™-TOPO® TA Cloning Kit, Life Technologies) to construct modified infectious clones by inserting viral sequences between the human cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter and the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) that are present in the vector [54 (link), 55 (link)]. The viruses rescued from each of the modified infectious clones were named JA142c and VR2332c. The infectious clone-driven viruses were used in this study to minimize mutations caused by passaging the virus in cells.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
