The gene encoding the coat protein of CGMMV-LN comprises of 486 nucleotides and encodes a putative protein of 161 amino acids. Sequence comparisons showed that the coat protein of this isolate was identical to that of seven CGMMV isolates infecting cucurbits in Europe and Asia. The 3′ noncoding region of CGMMV-LN consists of 176 nucleotides, which is same as that of CGMMV-KOM, CGMMV-KW and CGMMV–SH.展开更多

METHODS: PCR and direct DNA sequencing were used to identify BCL-6 gene mutations in the 5' noncoding region in 29 cases of gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and 18 cases of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma as well as 10 cases of reactive hyperplasia of lymph node (LRH). RESULTS: Six of 29 gastric DLBCLs (20.7%), 4 of 18 gastric MALT lymphomas (22.2%) and 1 of 10 LRHs(10%) were found to have mutations. All mutations were single-base substitutions and the frequency of single-base changes was 0.20×1O^(-2)-1.02×1O^(-2)per bp. CONCLUSION: Point mutations in the 5' noncoding region of BCL-6 gene are found in Chinese patients with primary gastric DLBCLs and MALT lymphomas, suggesting that they may, in some extent, participate in the pathogenesis of primary gastric DLBCLs and MALT lymphomas.展开更多
