Conserved Endonuclease Function of Hantavirus L Polymerase. [PDF]

, 2016
Hantaviruses are important emerging pathogens belonging to the Bunyaviridae family. Like other segmented negative strand RNA viruses, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) also known as L protein of hantaviruses lacks an intrinsic "capping activity ...

Virus species and virus identification: Past and current controversies

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2007
The basic concepts used in virus classification are analyzed. A clear distinction is drawn between viruses that are real, concrete objects studied by virologists and virus species that are man-made taxonomic constructions that exist only in the mind. Classical views regarding the nature of biological species are reviewed and the concept of species used

Screening of charged spheroidal colloidal particles

, 2010
We study the effective screened electrostatic potential created by a spheroidal colloidal particle immersed in an electrolyte, within the mean field approximation, using Poisson--Botzmann equation in its linear and nonlinear forms, and also beyond the ...

Hantavirus RNA in Saliva from Patients with Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Hantaviruses cause 2 zoonotic diseases, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome. Infection is usually initiated after inhalation of virus-contaminated rodent excreta.

Preclinical evaluation of a fully human, quadrivalent-hantavirus polyclonal antibody derived from a non-human source

mBio
Hantaviruses are rodent-borne viruses that cause severe disease in infected humans. In the New World, major hantaviruses include Andes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) causing hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.
