Abstract

Introduction: Orf virus envelope gene (B2L) encodes a highly immunogenic protein that exhibits lipase activity. Since Orf virus strains change genetically, it is essential to have adequate information on geospatial genetic diversity of global B2L to design an appropriate contagious ecthyma vaccine. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, we have investigated twenty-four Iranian Orf virus B2L genes that were recovered from tow outbreaks of contagious ecthyma in sheep and goats from four provinces of Iran and compared with related available global sequences in GenBank.
