Pig epizootic diarrhea virus cannot be grown in cell culture; for its characterization, intestinal perfusate material from a pig infected with the strain CV777 had to be used. In isopyknic sucrose gradients, a peak of virus-specific ELISA activity was detected at a density of 1.17 g/ml. Using immunoprecipitation of radioiodinated-purified virus material followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, 3 proteins of low molecular weight (20,000 to 32,000 daltons [D]) were found; after blotting nitrocellulose and glycoprotein identification with concanavalin A and horseradish peroxidase, 1 of the proteins (23,000 D) gave a signal. Another protein of 58,000 D was encountered, which was the only protein binding an RNA probe. Finally, a protein of 85,000 D was visible, associated with minor bands of about 110,000 and 135,000 D in most experiments. Using the concanavalin A-blotting technique, the same bands were visualized. The demonstration of a polydisperse cluster of proteins from 20,000 to 32,000 D (of which at least 1 is glycosylated), of glycosylated proteins from 85,000 to 135,000 D, and of an RNA-binding protein of 58,000 D is taken as structural evidence that pig epizootic diarrhea virus should be classified with the Coronaviridae, irrespective of the apparent lack of an antigenic relationship with other members of that family.
