Abstract
Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a highly contagious viral disease that affects dogs, especially puppies. CPV-2 is recognized for its resilience in contaminated environments, ease of transmission among dogs, and pathogenicity for puppies. In this protocol, we have adapted the methodology to allow the recovery of complete CPV-2 genomes directly from clinical samples (dry swabs) from puppies with clinical signals of viral enteritis. A multiplex PCR was designed with primers targeting fragments of 400 to 1,000 base pairs (bp) along the full length of the viral genome. The resulting reads were compared after sequencing with the Nanopore technology. Genome assembly revealed that the smaller fragments generated larger numbers of reads, allowing a more reliable coverage of the genome than those attained with primers targeting larger amplicons. Both new methodologies were efficient in amplification and sequencing.

Our samples were dry rectal swabs of animals confirmed positive by a rapid test.
Samples were collected and stored in a centrifuge tube (without transporting media) at -20 ºC until processing.
For each sample, add Amount10 µL of beads and Amount4 µL of proteinase K.

Obs: when working with many samples, one can always prepare a mixed solution with both components. Just make to keep the beads suspended while pipetting.

Transfer the plate (or your tubes) to magnetic stand (user supplied). After the beads have pelleted, aspirate and discard the supernatant.

This protocol can be fast tracked by the use of an automated extractor.
We use EXTRACTA 96 (Loccus).

Perform one wash of the pellet (beads) with Amount250 µL of MagBead DNA/RNA Wash 2 solution.

Add Amount250 µL of 80% ethanol and mix well.
Transfer the sample (liquid and beads) to a new place/tube.

Pellet the beads and discard the the supernatant.
Add Amount50 µL of nuclease-free water and mix well (this is the elution step).
Pellet the beads (magnetically) and transfer the supernatant (containing DNA/RNA) to a new plate/tube.
Multiplex PCR to obtain CPV genome fragments
Multiplex PCR to obtain CPV genome fragments
This protocol uses 2 sets of oligos: one set amplifies ~400 bp sequences that overlap about 100 nucleotides with each other (Table 1); the other amplifies ~1000 bp sequences that overlap about 100 nucleotides with each other (Table 2). Primers are listed in the tables below and were design based on Canine parvovirus reference sequence NC_001539.1 (GenBank).

Primers should be mix into 2 pools for each set. To prepare a pool, add Amount5 µL of each primer (at Concentration100 micromolar (µM) ) as indicated. This will be your 10X (stock) solution. Working solution should be dilute to 1X concentration (Concentration10 micromolar (µM) ).

Table 2. Primers targeting 1000 bp amplicons


We used ReagentQ5 High-Fidelity PCR Kit - 200 rxnsNew England BiolabsCatalog #E0555L to perform PCR.

Reactions should be set up independent for each pool, with a final volume of Amount25 µL , as bellow:

Reactions for 400 bp products:
* Master Mix 2X - Amount12.5 µL
* Primer pool 1 or 2 - Amount1.6 µL
* Nuclease-free H20 - Amount5.9 µL
* DNA - Amount5.0 µL

Reactions for 1000 bp products:
* Master Mix 2X - Amount12.5 µL
* Primer pool 1 or 2 - Amount0.4 µL
* Nuclease-free H20 - Amount7.1 µL
* DNA - Amount5.0 µL

The final concentration in a reaction should be Concentration15 nanomolar (nM) per primer. Therefore, the volume of primers used in a reaction will vary according with the number of primers in the pool. More about this subject can be found in Quick et al. (2017).

PCR's run method should be set as:
* Temperature98 °C for Duration00:03:00
* 35 cycles of (Temperature98 °C for Duration00:00:15 ; Temperature63 °C for Duration00:05:00 )
* Hold at Temperature4 °C
