ABSTRACT Background Lassa fever (LF) is a viral hemorrhagic illness endemic in Nigeria and other West African countries. In recent years, the number of reported cases of LF in Nigeria has increased. In this study, we discussed the epidemiology of LF, the phylogenomics of the LF virus, issues associated with the increased cases of LF, and ...

Investigation of Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Zoonotic Diseases in Rodents in Turkey
Rodents are reservoir hosts for zoonotic pathogens. In this study, the presence of viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis and hantavirus infections, bacterial tularaemia and leptospirosis, and parasitic leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis were investigated in 498 rodents collected in Erzurum province, Turkey.

Identification and Genetic Analysis of Species D Rotaviruses in Pangolin Samples
Pangolins have been found to carry severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2)‐related coronaviruses. In light of this discovery, interest has been piqued in viromes of these heavily trafficked wild animals. In this study, we performed viral metagenomic sequencing to explore viromes of both confiscated dead pangolins and captive ...

Conserved Endonuclease Function of Hantavirus L Polymerase. [PDF]
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 ...

Post-translational processing of the glycoproteins of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus. [PDF]
Intracellular events in the synthesis, glycosylation, and transport of the lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) glycoproteins have been examined. We have shown by N-glycanase digestion that LCMV strain Arm-4 bears five oligosaccharides on GP-1 and ...

Within host RNA virus persistence : mechanisms and consequences [PDF]
RER is funded by the Wellcome Trust, UK (Grant 101788/Z/13/Z) and DEG by US National Institutes of Health (R01 NS038932).In a prototypical response to an acute viral infection it would be expected that the adaptive immune response would eliminate all ...

The Role of Platelets in Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers [PDF]
Arenaviridae, Bunyaviridae, Filoviridae and Flaviviridae are all RNA viruses that can induce a coagulopathy in infected patients. While there is a paucity of information on the cause of this coagulopathy, these viruses all produce a severe ...
