Application progress in E2 protein of Classical Swine Fever Virus

Abstract：Classical swine fever(CSF)is a highly contagious, acute, hyperthermic, multi-systemic hemorrhagic viral disease of pigs, which caused by classical swine fe-ver virus(CSFV), a member of the genus Pestivirus of the Flaviviridae. CSF is preva-lent in all continents except North America and Oceania,it is distributed worldwide, and it has relapsed in some European countries(Netherlands, Belgium, Britain, Germa-ny, Italy, Spain, etc.)which had eliminated CSF. Although we have used HCLV vaccine for inoculation for a long time,but CSF still exists in our country and happens from frequency of pandemic into erratic regional dissemination. Latent and persistent in-fection has increased. Therefore, we need clear swine fever virus genome structure and the most research value immunological antigen protein structures to provide a theoretical basis for the development of new and effective vaccines and diagnostic reagents. In this paper,we have reviewed the research progress in genomic structure of CSFV,structure, function, epitopes,expression and applications of E2 protein.
