Public Health Significance of Rotavirus Gastroenteritis
RADS Journal of Biological Research & Applied Science, 2021 Background: Rotavirus is a type of virus that lacks the membranous layer (envelope); belonging to the family Reoviridae. Rotavirus derived its name from its characteristic appearance of a wheel like structure, as revealed by electron microscopy.

Assembly intermediates of orthoreovirus captured in the cell
Nature Communications, 2020 Reoviridae undergo a complex assembly pathway in the host cell. Here the authors use cryo-electron tomography to visualize the assembly stages of mammalian orthoreovirus revealing a single shelled intermediate with gross similarity to an early assembly ...

Comparative analysis of the extent of protein-protein interactions in icosahedral viral capsids. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract Nonenveloped viruses package, carry, and deliver their genomes to the targeted cells using protein shells known as capsids. The viral capsids come in different shapes and sizes, most exhibiting helical or icosahedral symmetries. Here, we analyzed 634 icosahedral capsids at high resolution (<4 Å) from 39 virus families with T‐numbers ranging ...

Failure to remove bluetongue serotype 8 virus (BTV-8) from in vitro produced and in vivo derived bovine embryos and subsequent transmission of BTV-8 to recipient cows after embryo transfer [PDF]
, 2019 The behavior of BTV-8 in cattle is different from most other serotypes not only with regards to clinical signs but certainly with respect to virus transmission (transplacental, contact). Therefore, the possibility of virus transmission by means of embryo

Full genome sequencing and genetic characterization of Eubenangee viruses identify Pata virus as a distinct species within the genus Orbivirus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Eubenangee virus has previously been identified as the cause of Tammar sudden death syndrome (TSDS). Eubenangee virus (EUBV), Tilligery virus (TILV), Pata virus (PATAV) and Ngoupe virus (NGOV) are currently all classified within the Eubenangee virus ...

Morphologic Differentiation of Viruses beyond the Family Level
Viruses, 2014 Electron microscopy has been instrumental in the identification of viruses by being able to characterize a virus to the family level. There are a few cases where morphologic or morphogenesis factors can be used to differentiate further, to the genus ...

Generation of infectious RNA complexes in Orbiviruses: RNA-RNA interactions of genomic segments. [PDF]
, 2016 Viruses with segmented RNA genomes must package the correct number of segments for synthesis of infectious virus particles. Recent studies suggest that the members of the Reoviridae family with segmented double-stranded RNA genomes achieve this ...
