Arenaviridae exoribonuclease presents genomic RNA edition capacity [PDF]
bioRxiv, 2019 The Arenaviridae is a large family of viruses causing both acute and persistent infections and causing significant public health concerns in afflicted regions. A “trademark” of infection is the quick and efficient immuno-suppression mediated in part by a

Human Pathogenic Arenaviruses (Arenaviridae)
Encyclopedia of Virology, 2021 Several arenaviruses cause hemorrhagic fever (HF) disease in humans and have a vast impact on public health in their endemic regions. In addition, evidence indicates that the worldwide-distributed arenavirus lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is a

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Arenaviridae
Journal of General Virology, 2019 Members of the family Arenaviridae produce enveloped virions containing genomes consisting of two or three single-stranded RNA segments totalling about 10.5 kb. Arenaviruses can infect mammals, including humans and other primates, snakes, and fish.

Chapter 25 – Family Arenaviridae
, 2017 The name arenavirus comes from the Latin arenosus (sandy). Ribosomes are packaged within arenavirus virions and these are responsible for the “sandy” appearance of the particles.

Taxonomy of the family Arenaviridae and the order Bunyavirales: update 2018 [PDF]
Archives of Virology, 2018 In 2018, the family Arenaviridae was expanded by inclusion of 1 new genus and 5 novel species. At the same time, the recently established order Bunyavirales was expanded by 3 species. This article presents the updated taxonomy of the family Arenaviridae and the order Bunyavirales as now accepted by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses ...

Detection of Latino virus (Arenaviridae: Mammarenavirus) naturally infecting Calomys callidus.
Acta Tropica, 2018 Mammarenavirus species are associated with a specific rodent host species, although an increasing number of virus has been associated to more than one host, suggesting that co-evolution is less robust than initially thought. There are few eco-epidemiological studies of South America mammarenaviruses in non-endemic areas of Arenavirus Hemorrhagic Fever,

Viral diversity in wild rodents in the regions of Canaã de Carajás and Curionopólis, State of Pará, Brazil [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyWild rodents serve as crucial reservoirs for zoonotic viruses. Anthropogenic and environmental disruptions, particularly those induced by mining activities, can destabilize rodent populations and facilitate the emergence of viral agents. In the Canaã dos
