Avian leukosis virus (ALV) belongs to the family Retroviridae and causes considerable economic losses to the poultry industry. Following an outbreak associated with high mortality in a broiler flock in northern part of Malaysia, kidney tissues from affected chickens were submitted for virus isolation and identification in chicken embryonated egg and ...

Complex Codon Usage Pattern and Compositional Features of Retroviruses
Retroviruses infect a wide range of organisms including humans. Among them, HIV‐1, which causes AIDS, has now become a major threat for world health. Some of these viruses are also potential gene transfer vectors. In this study, the patterns of synonymous codon usage in retroviruses have been studied through multivariate statistical methods on ORFs ...

Programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) and stop codon readthrough are two translational recoding mechanisms utilized by some RNA viruses to express their structural and enzymatic proteins at a defined ratio. Efficient recoding usually requires an RNA pseudoknot located several nucleotides downstream from the recoding site.

MoMuLV‐ts‐1: A Unique Mouse Model of Retrovirus‐Induced Lymphoma Transmitted by Breast Milk
Our laboratory has developed a murine model of lymphoma via breast milk transmission of MoMuLV‐ts‐1 (Moloney murine leukemia virus‐temperature sensitive mutant‐1). Uninfected offspring suckled from infected surrogate mothers become infected and develop lymphoma.

ABSTRACT Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infects cattle, integrates into the host genome as a provirus, and induces a persistent infection that remains asymptomatic but can cause leukaemia/lymphoma. Most BLV‐infected cell clones are created by massive depletion, and a few of these infected cell clones expand through the mitotic cycle, leading to the onset

Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...

Pixelated pathologies: Camera trapping as a tool for monitoring wildlife health
Given the increasing emergence of diseases, some with conservation and public health implications, improving and expanding wildlife health surveillance strategies is imperative. Camera trapping is particularly relevant for detecting new outbreaks, monitoring high‐risk zones and evaluating risk mitigation measures. Abstract Camera trapping has become an

Histopathological examination of the liver from an avian leukosis virus (ALV)‐infected chicken reveals tissue alterations. Molecular detection confirms the presence of ALV in the liver samples. Evolutionary origin analysis traces the identified ALV strain. Mutational analysis and structural examination of the ALV envelope (Env) protein provide insights

MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) serve a key role in regulating the cell cycle and inducing tumorigenesis. Subgroup J of the avian leukosis virus (ALV-J) belongs to the family Retroviridae, subfamily Orthoretrovirinae and genus Alpharetrovirus that causes tumors ...
