Application of new generation high-throughput RNA sequencing in quality control of live attenuated yellow fever vaccine(chicken embryo cell) virus seed bank / 中国生物制品学杂志

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To perform quality control in live attenuated yellow fever vaccine(chicken embryo cell)virus seed bank at the genomic level using the new generation Illumina/Solexa sequencing platform.Methods The live attenuated yellow fever vaccine strain YF17D-204 was inoculated into primary chicken embryo cells,and the chicken embryo cell adapted strains of live attenuated yellow fever vaccine were screened to establish YFV17D-CEC tertiary virus seed bank. The genome RNA of virus seeds was extracted,and the RNA library was prepared. The new generation Illumina/Solexa sequencing platform was used for high-throughput RNA sequencing. The whole genome nucleic acid sequence of yellow fever virus was systematically analyzed by using biological softwares such as FastQC,Trimmomatic,SPAdes,GapFiller,PrInSeS-G,Prokka,RepeatMasker,CRT,NCBI Blast~+,KAAS,HMMER3,TMHMM,SignalP,LipoP,ProtCamp and MegAlign.Results The whole genome of YFV17D-CEC tertiary virus seed bank contained 10 862 nucleotides,including an open reading frame(ORF)from 119 to 10 354(10 236 bp),encoding 3 412 amino acids. Sequence alignment analysis showed that the sequence of YF17D-CEC tertiary virus seed bank was 100% identical with YFV17D RKI(JN628279.1),YF/Vaccine/USA/Sanofi-Pasteur-17D-204/UF795AA/YFVax(JX503529.1)and YFV17D-204(KF769015.1),and no mutation occurred in the whole genome of the tertiary virus seed bank. Comparison of the sequences of different live attenuated yellow fever vaccine strains showed that yellow fever virus had multiple polymorphic sites.Conclusion YFV17DCEC has good genetic stability in primary chicken embryo cells. High-throughput RNA sequencing technology can quickly detect the whole genome information of YF17D-CEC virus seed bank,and the sequence analysis data can be used in the gene level quality control of yellow fever vaccine virus seed banks.
