Animal Health Research Reviews, 2012
AbstractThe alphavirus replicon technology has been utilized for many years to develop vaccines for both veterinary and human applications. Many developments have been made to the replicon platform recently, resulting in improved safety and efficacy of replicon particle (RP) vaccines. This review provides a broad overview of the replicon technology and

Alphavirus Entry and Membrane Fusion [PDF]
The study of enveloped animal viruses has greatly advanced our understanding of the general properties of membrane fusion and of the specific pathways that viruses use to infect the host cell. The membrane fusion proteins of the alphaviruses and flaviviruses have many similarities in structure and function.

Alphavirus Transducing Systems
2008Alphavirus transducing systems (ATSs) are important tools for expressing genes of interest (GOI) in mosquitoes and nonvector insects. ATSs are derived from infectious cDNA clones of mosquito-borne RNA viruses (family Togaviridae). The most common ATSs in use are derived from Sindbis viruses; however, ATSs have been derived from other alphaviruses as ...

Host responses to alphavirus infection
Immunological Reviews, 2008Summary: Members of the Alphavirus genus are classified into New World and Old World groups based upon their disease characteristics and primary areas of endemicity. The two groups exhibit noteworthy differences in pathogenesis during human infection, with Old World viruses primarily causing febrile and arthritogenic diseases and the New World viruses

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1994
Alphavirus vectors are newcomers in the field of heterologous gene expression. Nevertheless, they have rapidly become popular and are now being used in a wide range of applications. During the past year, new vectors and new methods for their use have improved levels of gene expression.

Alphavirus vectors and vaccination
Reviews in Medical Virology, 2002AbstractAlphaviruses are positiveāstranded RNA viruses that have a broad host range and therefore are capable of replicating in many vertebrate and invertebrate cells. The singleāstranded alphavirus genome is divided into two ORFs. The first ORF encodes the nonstructural proteins that are translated upon entry of the virus into the cytoplasm and are ...

Discovery of Mwinilunga alphavirus: A novel alphavirus in Culex mosquitoes in Zambia [PDF]
Mosquito-borne alphaviruses are disseminated globally and cause febrile illness in humans and animals. Since the prevalence and diversity of alphaviruses has not been previously investigated in Zambia, reverse transcription PCR was employed as a broad-spectrum approach for the detection of alphaviruses in mosquitoes.

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the mechanics, including how alphaviruses function as expression vectors and some features that make them useful. It also describes some of the ways in which alphaviruses have been used and some potential ways they can be of value. Alphaviruses are positive-strand RNA-enveloped viruses.
