Vaccine Candidates against Arenavirus Infections
The viral family Arenaviridae contains several members that cause severe, and often lethal, diseases in humans. Several highly pathogenic arenaviruses are classified as Risk Group 4 agents and must be handled in the highest biological containment ...

Challenges in predicting protein-protein interactions of understudied viruses: Arenavirus-human interactions. [PDF]
Understanding protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between viruses and human proteins is crucial for uncovering infection mechanisms and identifying potential therapeutic targets. The ability to generalize PPI predictive models across understudied viruses

Molecular characterization of arenavirus defective viral genomes reveals sequence features associated with their formation [PDF]
Defective viral genomes (DVGs) are byproducts of replication that arise during infection with diverse RNA viruses and can impact virus infection and disease outcome.

Distinct Molecular Mechanisms of Host Immune Response Modulation by Arenavirus NP and Z Proteins
Endemic to West Africa and South America, mammalian arenaviruses can cross the species barrier from their natural rodent hosts to humans, resulting in illnesses ranging from mild flu-like syndromes to severe and fatal haemorrhagic zoonoses. The increased

Molecular organization of the New World arenavirus spike glycoprotein complex. [PDF]
Of the multiple arenaviruses that cause haemorrhagic fevers in the Americas, all lack reliable therapeutic options, and only one has a vaccine. The arenavirus glycoprotein complex (GPC) binds cellular receptors and mediates pH-dependent fusion of viral ...

Analysis of the Cell Type-Dependence on the Arenavirus Z-Mediated Virus-Like Particle Production
Several arenaviruses are highly pathogenic to humans, causing hemorrhagic fever. Discovery of anti-arenavirus drug candidates is urgently needed, although the molecular basis of the host- and organ-specific pathogenicity remains to be fully elucidated ...
