Equine rhinitis A virus and its low pH empty particle: clues towards an aphthovirus entry mechanism?
Equine rhinitis A virus (ERAV) is closely related to foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), belonging to the genus Aphthovirus of the Picornaviridae. How picornaviruses introduce their RNA genome into the cytoplasm of the host cell to initiate replication ...

Assessment of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Trends in Türkiye Between 2005 and 2025. [PDF]
Foot‐and‐mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral illness that continues to threaten livestock health, productivity, and trade, particularly in countries like Türkiye where multiple FMD serotypes cocirculate. This study aimed to analyze the temporal and spatial distributions, serotype dynamics, and seasonal patterns of FMD in Türkiye between ...

Initiation of translation in picornavirus RNAs occurs internally, mediated by an element termed internal ribosome entry site (IRES). In the aphthovirus RNA, the IRES element directs translation initiation at two in-frame AUGs separated by 84 nucleotides.

An analysis of published nucleotide sequences of the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of 7 cardioviruses and 3 aphthoviruses has allowed us to derive a consensus secondary structure model that differs from that previously proposed for the 5'-UTR of entero- and rhinoviruses, though all these viruses belong to the same family, Picornaviridae.

Heat shock protein 90 chaperone activity is required for hepatitis A virus replication [PDF]
HSP90 heat shock chaperones are essential for maintaining cellular proteostasis, as well as the ATP-dependent folding and functional maturation of many viral proteins. As a result, inhibitors of HSP90 have broad antiviral activity, disrupting replication

Oral and Faecal Viromes of New Zealand Calves on Pasture With an Idiopathic Ill-Thrift Syndrome. [PDF]
Since 2015, an idiopathic ill‐thrift syndrome featuring diarrhoea and, in some cases, gastrointestinal ulceration has been reported in weaned New Zealand dairy calves. Similar syndromes have been described in the British Isles and Australia, but investigations in New Zealand have yet to identify a specific cause. Notably, the viromes of affected calves

Statistical analyses of RNA folding in 5' nontranslated regions (5'NTR) of encephalomyocarditis virus, Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus, foot-and-mouth disease virus, and hepatitis A virus indicate that two highly significant folding regions occur in the 5' and 3' portions of the 5'NTR.

Serotype Diversity and Molecular Characterization of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Viruses From Outbreaks in Ethiopia (2019-2023): Re-Emergence of SAT 2 After 30 Years. [PDF]
Ethiopia faces significant economic losses from foot‐and‐mouth disease (FMD). Laboratory diagnostic tools such as antigen detection ELISA (Ag‐ELISA), reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR), and sequencing provide important information that underpin control initiatives.

Cryo-EM structure of the Seneca Valley virus A-particle and related structural states [PDF]
Picornavirus cell entry requires a series of capsid protein conformational changes leading to genome uncoating. For enteroviruses, receptor binding triggers the transition from a full (F) capsid to an altered (A) particle before releasing its genome and ...
