Widespread recombination, reassortment, and transmission of unbalanced compound viral genotypes in natural arenavirus infections. [PDF]
, 2015 Arenaviruses are one of the largest families of human hemorrhagic fever viruses and are known to infect both mammals and snakes. Arenaviruses package a large (L) and small (S) genome segment in their virions.

Analysis of the Cell Type-Dependence on the Arenavirus Z-Mediated Virus-Like Particle Production
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 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 ...

Uirusu, 2012 Arenaviruses are the collective name for viruses, which belong to the family Arenaviridae. They replicate in the cytoplasm of cells, and were named after the sandy (Latin, arenosus) appearance of the ribosomes often seen in thin sections of virions under electron microscope. Several arenaviruses, such as Lassa virus in West Africa, and Junin, Guanarito,
