Processing of the putative nonstructural (NS) proteins, p70(NS3), p4(NS4A), p27(NS4B), p58/56(NS5A), and p66(NS5B), of Japanese type hepatitis C virus (HCV) in insect cells was analyzed by using a baculovirus expression system. Products processed by the HCV serine proteinase (Cpro-2) were essentially identical to those found in mammalian cultured cells transiently producing the NS region of the HCV precursor polyprotein. A series of internal and carboxy (C)-terminal deletion experiments coupled with epitope scanning analysis showed that efficient cleavage at the Cpro-2-dependent processing sites, except at the p4(NS4A)/p27(NS4B) site, is not significantly influenced by those mutations. Efficient cleavage at p4(NS4A)/p27(NS4B) required about 40% of the NS5A N-terminal region. Estimation of the processing sites by determination of the N-terminal amino acid sequences of the processed products revealed that all the Cpro-2-dependent cleavages occurred at essentially identical sites to those reported for another HCV genotype, suggesting that Cpro-2 is a possible target for the development of a strain-independent anti-HCV agent.

Hexaflumuron, an insect growth regulator (IGR), was found to greatly affect the development of immatures and emergence of adults of three species of vector mosquitoes, Culex quinquefasciatus, Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi, when larvae were subjected to short time exposure of < or = 1 h. This IGR could completely prevent adult emergence even at a minimum exposure time of 10 min at 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 mg/l. On treatment, larval and pupal mortality as well as varying degrees of morphogenetic abnormalities were induced in immatures and adults of the three species. Four weeks of control achieved in a slow moving sullage canal breeding Culex quinquefasciatus indicates that this IGR can be of use in such breeding habitats.
