Alphavirus nsP2: A Multifunctional Regulator of Viral Replication and Promising Target for Anti-Alphavirus Therapies [PDF]

open access: yes
Alphaviruses are re-emerging vector-born pathogens that cause arthralgia or encephalitic diseases on a global scale. While a vaccine against chikungunya virus was recently approved, no vaccines currently exist for other alphaviruses, nor are there ...

First Record of Mosquito-Borne Kyzylagach Virus in Central Europe

open access: yesViruses, 2020
RNA of Kyzylagach virus (KYZV), a Sindbis-like mosquito-borne alphavirus from Western equine encephalitis virus complex, was detected in four pools (out of 221 pools examined), encompassing 10,784 female Culex modestus mosquitoes collected at a fishpond ...

Structure and Replication of Alphavirus RNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Both ends of the alphavirus genomic RNA are potentially important in its replication. The region preceding and including the 5'-end of the subgenomic 26S RNA in genomic RNA might also be involved in 26S RNA transcription. Sequences of these regions of up

Vaccination Reduces Shedding of Salmonid Alphavirus Subtype 3, but Bacterial Co‐Infection Influences the Effect

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waterborne horizontal transmission of viral diseases in fish relies on the release of infectious virus particles (termed shedding) into the aquatic environment. Both the rate and duration of shedding are critical for efficient viral spread, making interventions that reduce shedding valuable for disease control.

Dancing with the Devil: A Review of the Importance of Host RNA-Binding Proteins to Alphaviral RNAs during Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Alphaviruses are arthropod-borne, single-stranded positive sense RNA viruses that rely on the engagement of host RNA-binding proteins to efficiently complete the viral lifecycle.

Impact of bauxite mining on mosquito communities (Diptera: Culicidae) and pathogen transmission risks in the eastern Amazon

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Bauxite mining in the Amazon alters mosquito communities, favouring anthropophilic and generalist vectors while reducing species diversity and the variety of blood meal sources. Molecular analyses identified humans, tapirs and deer as the primary blood meal sources.

Alphavirus structure: activation for entry at the target cell surface

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceA wealth of new data about the 3D organization of alphavirus particles was obtained in the last few years. This includes the crystal structures of the envelope glycoprotein complexes at neutral and at acid pH, as well as electron ...

Virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and transporter expression following maternal arbovirus infection

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Arboviruses induce virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and functional markers. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) exposure was associated with reduced syncytiotrophoblast and syncytial knot areas, increased cytotrophoblast proliferation (Ki‐67) and thyroid transporter (MCT8) expression, reduced protective (P‐gp and BCRP ...
