Phylogeny and evolution of old world arenaviruses
, 2006 The intention of this study was to investigate the genomics, phylogeny and evolution of the Old World arenaviruses based on sequence data representing the four viral genes. To achieve this aim, we sequenced the complete S and L RNA segments of Ippy virus

ZNRD2 Mediated Nucleoprotein Aggregation Impairs Respiratory Syncytial Virus Replication
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 12, 27 February 2026.During RSV infection, nucleoprotein (N) forms RNA‐bound oligomers. The host protein ZNRD2 binds to these oligomers, promoting their transition into insoluble aggregates. These aggregates simultaneously sequester functional N to restrict viral production and disrupt chaperonin assembly quality control by interfering with ZNRD2's role as an adaptor ...

Protein sequence database for pathogenic arenaviruses [PDF]
, 2007 BackgroundArenaviruses are a family of rodent-borne viruses that cause several hemorrhagic fevers. These diseases can be devastating and are often lethal. Herein, to aid in the design and development of diagnostics, treatments and vaccines for arenavirus

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 296-312, February 2026.As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.

Emerging virus diseases: can we ever expect the unexpected?
Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2012 Emerging virus diseases are a major threat to human and veterinary public health. With new examples occurring approximately one each year, the majority are viruses originating from an animal host.

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Human transferrin receptor 1 (TfR) is essential for cellular iron homeostasis by internalizing the iron carrier proteins transferrin and ferritin. It is also an entry point for various pathogens, such as South American hemorrhagic fever caused by arenaviruses and the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax, which utilize TfR to gain access to cells.

High Diversity of RNA Viruses in Rodents, Ethiopia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We investigated synanthropic small mammals in the Ethiopian Highlands as potential reservoirs for human pathogens and found that 2 rodent species, the Ethiopian white-footed mouse and Awash multimammate mouse, are carriers of novel Mobala virus strains ...

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 42, November 13, 2025.Current herpesvirus treatments targeting the viral DNA polymerase are limited by toxicities and drug resistance. Novel compounds inhibiting the nuclease activity of the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV‐1) terminase complex, required for viral genome packaging, have been identified.

The Phylogeny of New World (Tacaribe Complex) Arenaviruses
, 1996 Several New World (Tacaribe complex) arenaviruses (Arenaviridae) are known to cause severe hemorrhagic disease in humans. Phylogenetic reconstruction of the Tacaribe complex arenaviruses previously has been limited by the relative scarcity of sequence ...

The underlying mechanisms of arenaviral entry through matriglycan
Frontiers in Molecular BiosciencesMatriglycan, a recently characterized linear polysaccharide, is composed of alternating xylose and glucuronic acid subunits bound to the ubiquitously expressed protein α-dystroglycan (α-DG).
