Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Sialidases, enzymes produced by Clostridium perfringens Type A, play a critical role in cleaving sialic acid residues essential for viral entry into host cells. By targeting pathogens such as coronaviruses, influenza, and paramyxoviruses, sialidase represents a promising therapeutic candidate.

A western blot to detect antibody to avian reovirus [PDF]
Avian Pathology, 1990 Purified reoviruses RAM-1 and 74/2 were combined and used as antigen. The Western blot detected antibodies to 16/16 avian reoviruses in sera from experimentally inoculated chickens, and to 6/7 reoviruses in contact sera from naturally infected chickens. The test was specific for avian reovirus and was more sensitive and specific than immunofluorescence.

A protein with simultaneous capsid scaffolding and dsRNA-binding activities enhances the birnavirus capsid mechanical stability [PDF]
, 2015 Viral capsids are metastable structures that perform many essential processes; they also act as robust cages during the extracellular phase. Viruses can use multifunctional proteins to optimize resources (e.g., VP3 in avian infectious bursal disease ...
