ISG20 inhibits bluetongue virus replication
ISG20 is an interferon-inducible exonuclease that inhibits virus replication. Although ISG20 is thought to degrade viral RNA, the antiviral mechanism and specificity of ISG20 remain unclear. In this study, the antiviral role of ovine ISG20 (oISG20) in bluetongue virus (BTV) infection was investigated.

RNA elements in open reading frames of the bluetongue virus genome are essential for virus replication. [PDF]
Members of the Reoviridae family are non-enveloped multi-layered viruses with a double stranded RNA genome consisting of 9 to 12 genome segments. Bluetongue virus is the prototype orbivirus (family Reoviridae, genus Orbivirus), causing disease in ...

Bluetongue Virus Entry into Cells [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bluetongue virus (BTV) is a member of the Orbivirus genus within the Reoviridae family. Like those of other members of the family, BTV particles are nonenveloped and contain two distinct capsids, namely, an outer capsid and an inner capsid or core. The two outer

Vector competence of British Culicoides species for Bluetongue virus serotype 8 [PDF]
The proportion of infected vectors which are able to transmit an arbovirus to a susceptible host has a significant impact on the epidemic potential of such a virus. Assessing vector competence is therefore crucial to evaluate accurately the risk posed by
