MGF300-1L is a virulence factor of ASFV
For the RNA-seq, primary porcine alveolar macrophages were cultured in 12-well cell culture plates, infected with of the MGF300-1L-deleted ASFV mutant (Del1L) or ASFV-WT in triplicate at a MOI of 5 for 12 or 20 h, and collected in TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, 15596026CN). All the sample analyses were carried out in triplicates. Genome-wide differential gene expression analyses were performed using RNA deep sequencing.
