Characterization of the Rubella Virus Nonstructural Protease Domain and Its Cleavage Site [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The region of the rubella virus nonstructural open reading frame that contains the papain-like cysteine protease domain and its cleavage site was expressed with a Sindbis virus vector. Cys-1151 has previously been shown to be required for the activity of

Agua Salud alphavirus defines a novel lineage of insect-specific alphaviruses discovered in the New World

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2019
The genus Alphavirus harbours mostly insect-transmitted viruses that cause severe disease in humans, livestock and wildlife. Thus far, only three alphaviruses with a host range restricted to insects have been found in mosquitoes from the Old World ...

Elucidation of the Epitranscriptomic RNA Modification Landscape of Chikungunya Virus

open access: yesViruses
The genomes of positive-sense (+) single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses are believed to be subjected to a wide range of RNA modifications. In this study, we focused on the chikungunya virus (CHIKV) as a model (+) ssRNA virus to study the landscape of viral

Alphaviral vectors for gene transfer into neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Alphaviruses are small, enveloped positive-strand RNA viruses that have been successfully transformed into expression vectors in the case of Semliki Forest virus (SFV), Sindbis virus (SIN), and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus.

Functions of Alphavirus Macrodomain-containing protein nsP3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Alphaviruses are positive strand RNA viruses that replicate in association with cellular membranes. The viral RNA replication complex consists of four non-structural proteins nsP1-nsP4 which are essential for viral replication.

Translational Control of Alphavirus–Host Interactions: Implications in Viral Evolution, Tropism and Antiviral Response

open access: yesViruses
Alphaviruses can replicate in arthropods and in many vertebrate species including humankind, but only in vertebrate cells do infections with these viruses result in a strong inhibition of host translation and transcription.
