Alphaviruses

Oxford Textbook of Medicine, 2020
There are 31 registered alphaviruses belonging to the family Togaviridae, 16 of which are known to cause human infection. They are RNA viruses with global geographical distribution and complex transmission cycles, usually between wild or domestic animals

Vaccine Elicitation and Structural Basis for Antibody Protection Against Alphaviruses

open access: yesCell, 2023
Summary Alphaviruses are RNA viruses that represent emerging public health threats. To identify protective antibodies, we immunized macaques with a mixture of western, eastern, and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus-like particles (VLPs), a regimen ...

Chikungunya Virus and Other Emerging Arthritogenic Alphaviruses

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology
Arthritogenic alphaviruses are arboviruses (arthropod-borne viruses) that are genetically and serologically related positive-strand RNA viruses and cause epidemics on a global scale.

Encephalitic Alphaviruses [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Microbiology, 2010
This review will cover zoonotic, encephalitic alphaviruses in the family Togaviridae. Encephalitic alphaviruses, i.e. Western- (WEEV), Eastern- (EEEV), Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) and, more rarely, Ross River virus, Chikungunya virus and Highlands J virus (HJV), are neuroinvasive and may cause neurological symptoms ranging from mild (e ...

Alphaviruses

2010
Alphaviruses remain important emerging mosquito-borne, zoonotic pathogens that cause both localized human outbreaks and epizootics (e.g., Venezuelan equine encephalitis) and large human epidemics (e.g., Chikungunya). Alphaviruses are globally dispersed, and each continent has humans at risk from one or more of these arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses)

ALPHAVIRUSES AND APOPTOSIS

International Reviews of Immunology, 2004
Many reports have indicated that infection with SV or SFV induces apoptosis both in cultured cells and in the CNS of mice. In general, the ability of virus strains to induce apoptosis correlates with their neurovirulence, although both apoptosis and neurovirulence are age dependent, i.e., resistance increases with age. SV can induce apoptosis simply by

Budding of alphaviruses

Trends in Microbiology, 1995
The icosahedral structures of alphaviruses and of the external shell of the viral nucleocapsid have been defined to very high resolutions, revealing details of the interactions between the glycoproteins to form trimeric spikes and the nucleocapsid.

Budding of alphaviruses

Virus Research, 2004
Alphaviruses are small highly ordered enveloped RNA viruses, which replicate very efficiently in the infected cell. They consist of a nucleocapsid (NC) and a surrounding membrane with glycoproteins. In the NC the positive single stranded RNA genome of the virus is enclosed by a T=4 icosahedral shell of capsid (C) proteins.
