African Swine Fever Virus Guanylyltransferase

open access: yesVirology, 1993
The gene coding for the guanylyltransferase of African swine fever virus has been identified and sequenced. The gene, designated NP868R, is located within fragments EcoRI N' and D of the virus genome (BA71V strain) and encodes a protein with a predicted molecular mass of 99.9 kDa that shares significant similarity with the large subunit of both ...

Resource‐driven changes in wild boar movement and their consequences for the spread of African Swine Fever in the Russian Far East

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Knowledge of animal movement patterns is invaluable to understanding the spread of diseases among wildlife populations. One example is the recent African swine fever (ASF) outbreak among wild boar Sus scrofa populations across East Asia, where there is a lack of information on movements of this species.

African swine fever virus morphogenesis

open access: yesVirus Research, 2013
This review summarizes recent structural and molecular biology studies related to the morphogenesis of African swine fever virus (ASFV). ASFV possesses icosahedral morphology and is constituted by four concentric layers: the central nucleoid, the core shell, the inner envelope and the icosahedral capsid.

Seroimmunotyping of African swine fever virus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The extreme genetic and immunobiological heterogeneity exhibited by the African swine fever virus (ASFV) has been a significant impediment in the development of an efficacious vaccine against this disease. Consequently, the lack of internationally accepted protocols for the laboratory evaluation of candidate vaccines has become a major concern within ...

Using high‐density SNP genotyping to determine the origin of wild boar dispersers outside the geographic range margins in Norway

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Mammalian dispersal is characterized by long‐distance movements, and whether dispersal is sex‐dependent and occurs at pre‐saturation densities affects colonization speed and concurrent pathogen spread. In Scandinavia, Sweden classifies wild boar Sus scrofa as a native species and retains high densities, while Norwegian authorities considers it an alien

Vaccines for African swine fever: an update

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
African swine fever (ASF) is a fatal infectious disease of swine caused by the African swine fever virus (ASFV). Currently, the disease is listed as a legally notifiable disease that must be reported to the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH).

Evaluation of the Immunogenicity of a Pool of Recombinant Lactococcus lactis Expressing Eight Antigens of African Swine Fever Virus in a Mouse Model

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences
African swine fever (ASF), caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), poses a great threat to the global pig industry. There is an urgent demand for effective and safe vaccines to address this threat.

Inhibition of BET Family Proteins Suppresses African Swine Fever Virus Infection

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
African swine fever (ASF), an acute, severe, highly contagious disease caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection in domestic pigs and boars, has a mortality rate of up to 100%.

Hunting regulations and movements of alpine reindeer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Most ungulate populations are regulated by hunting, and harvest rate is regulated through quotas and hunting season duration. Hunting is well known to affect behaviour of ungulates, but how annual variation in quotas and hunting season duration affects individual behaviour remains uncertain.

Establishment of an ELISA Based on a Recombinant Antigenic Protein Containing Multiple Prominent Epitopes for Detection of African Swine Fever Virus Antibodies

open access: yesMicroorganisms
African swine fever virus (ASFV) poses a significant threat to the global pig industry, necessitating accurate and efficient diagnostic methods for its infection. Previous studies have often focused on a limited number of epitopes from a few proteins for
