Transcriptomic Signatures of Tacaribe Virus-Infected Jamaican Fruit Bats

open access: yesmSphere, 2017
Tacaribe virus (TCRV) is a mammalian arenavirus that was first isolated from artibeus bats in the 1950s. Subsequent experimental infection of Jamaican fruit bats (Artibeus jamaicensis) caused a disease similar to that of naturally infected bats. Although

Characterization of Junín arenavirus cell entry

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2007
Junín virus (JUNV) entry is conducted by receptor-mediated endocytosis. To explore the cellular entry mechanism of JUNV, inhibitory effects of drugs affecting the main endocytic pathways on JUNV entry into Vero cells were analysed. Compounds that impair clathrin-mediated endocytosis were shown to reduce virus internalization without affecting virion ...

Trace-Forward Investigation of Mice in Response to Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus Outbreak

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
During follow-up of a 2012 US outbreak of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), we conducted a trace-forward investigation. LCMV-infected feeder mice originating from a US rodent breeding facility had been distributed to >500 locations in 21 states.

Structure and stabilization of the antigenic glycoprotein building blocks of the New World mammarenavirus spike complex

open access: yesmBio
The spillover of New World (NW) arenaviruses from rodent reservoirs into human populations poses a continued risk to human health. NW arenaviruses present a glycoprotein (GP) complex on the envelope surface of the virion, which orchestrates host cell ...
