Alphaviruses in Latin America and the Introduction of Chikungunya Virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Alphaviruses are enveloped, single-stranded, plus-strand RNA viruses belonging to the Togaviridae family. These are zoonotics and arthropod-borne viruses (mainly mosquitoes) that are distributed nearly worldwide.

Replication of the genome of alphaviruses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 1987
ABSTRACT The genome of Semliki Forest virus (SFV) is 11 442 nucleotides with a 5′ cap-structure and a 3′ poly(A) tail of about 100 residues. The genome of the closely related Sindbis virus (SIN) is slightly longer (11 703 nucleotides). The parental RNA is first translated from the 5′ two thirds to yield; nsPl, nsP2, nsP3 and nsP4, which ...

A conserved opal termination codon optimizes a temperature-dependent trade-off between protein production and processing in alphaviruses

open access: yesScience Advances
Most mosquito-transmitted alphaviruses encode a premature opal termination codon upstream of their viral polymerase. We show that the Sindbis virus (SINV) opal codon outperforms other stop codons in primate cells at 37°C due to optimal translational ...

The alphaviruses: gene expression, replication, and evolution

open access: yesMicrobiological reviews, 1994
The alphaviruses are a genus of 26 enveloped viruses that cause disease in humans and domestic animals. Mosquitoes or other hematophagous arthropods serve as vectors for these viruses.

Effect of Foetal Bovine Serum in Oil‐Adjuvanted Vaccines on Spinal Deformities and Growth in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have shown that oil‐adjuvanted vaccines (OAV) can induce a variety of different side effects in Atlantic salmon including spinal deformities (SD). Of these, a pathology first described in 2020 and named cross‐stitch vertebrae has been associated with the use of inactivated salmonid alphavirus (SAV) vaccines. Historically, most

Antibody cross-reactivity among alphaviruses clinical practice.

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology
Alphaviruses are mosquito-borne pathogens causing rheumatological disease and encephalomyelitis. Their spread, enhanced by climate change, presents a growing global health threat.

Identification of Broad-Spectrum Antiviral Compounds by Targeting Viral Entry

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Viruses are a major threat to human health and economic well-being. In recent years Ebola, Zika, influenza, and chikungunya virus epidemics have raised awareness that infections can spread rapidly before vaccines or specific antagonists can be made ...

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.
