    摘要: The present invention provides the complete genomic sequence of a novel human coronavirus, coined as human coronavirus-HKU1 (“HCoV-HKU1”), isolated in Hong Kong. The virus belongs to the order Nidovirales of the family Coronaviridae, being a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity. Futher study on nasopharyngeal aspirates from patients with community-acquired pnbeumonia has revealed that there are two genotypes, genotype A and genotype B, for this virus. In addition to the genomic sequences of these two genotypes, the invention provides the deduced amino acid sequences of the complete genome of the CoV-HKU1. The nucleotide sequences and deduced amino acid sequences of the HCoV-HKU1 are useful in preventing, diagnosing and/or treating the infection by HCoV-HKU1. Furthermore, the invention provides immunogenic and vaccine preparations using recombinant and chimeric forms as well as subunits of the HCoV-HKU1 based on the nucleotide sequences and deduced amino acid sequences of the HCoV-HKU1.

    摘要: Pluripotent therapeutically programmed cells and methods for making such cells are provided. The pluripotent therapeutically programmed cells are post-natal stem cells which have been matured such that they represent either a more differentiated state or a less differentiated state after contact with stimulatory factors. The pluripotent therapeutically reprogrammed cells are suitable for cellular regenerative therapy and have the potential to differentiate into more committed cell lineages. Also disclosed are culture media for therapeutically reprogramming post-natal stem cells.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a high-throughput diagnostic assay for the virus causing Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in humans (“hSARS virus”). In particular, the invention relates to a high-throughput reverse transcription-PCR diagnostic test for SARS associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV). The present assay is a rapid, reliable assay which can be used for diagnosis and monitoring the spread of SARS and is based on the nucleotide sequences of the N (nucleocapsid)-gene of the hSARS virus. The present method eliminates false negative results and provides increased sensitivity for the assay. The invention also discloses the S (spike)-gene of the hSARS virus. The invention further relates to the deduced amino acid sequences of the N-gene and S-gene products of the hSARS virus and to the use of the N-gene and S-gene products in diagnostic methods. The invention further encompasses diagnostic assays and kits comprising antibodies generated against the N-gene or S-gene product.
