Abstract

We present the nucleotide sequence of bovine parainfluenza 3 virus (BPIV3) genome from its 3' end to the opening region of the F gene, through the NP, P plus C, and M genes. Comparison of the sequence with those reported for other paramyxoviruses indicated that BPIV3 was most similar to human parainfluenza 3 virus (HPIV3), and also very similar to Sendai virus in the structural make-up of its genome and the amino acid sequences of its gene products, suggesting that these three viruses constitute a paramyxovirus subgroup from which Newcastle disease and measles viruses are separable. In BPIV3 and Sendai virus, the NP and M proteins, the main structural elements, were more highly conserved than the functionally important P and C proteins. This tendency was also observed even in BPIV3 and HPIV3. Virus-specific amino acid sequences of the NP and M proteins were found at the carboxyl and amino terminal regions, respectively. BPIV3 M mRNA was found to have aberrations in its poly A attachment site.
