Increasing evidence of human infections by the neurotropic Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1). [PDF]
Due to relatively rare instances of human infections by the Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) and the difficulty of developing and validating a test for diagnosing it, human cases of fatal encephalitis caused by BoDV-1 have been difficult to confirm ...

Structural and biophysical characterization of the Borna disease virus 1 phosphoprotein. [PDF]
The phosphoprotein is an essential component of the replication complex in bornaviruses. Here, using X-ray crystallography, the structure of the phosphoprotein from Borna disease virus 1 is presented and its flexibility in solution is characterized.

Human Infections with Borna Disease Virus 1 (BoDV-1) Primarily Lead to Severe Encephalitis: Further Evidence from the Seroepidemiological BoSOT Study in an Endemic Region in Southern Germany. [PDF]
More than 40 human cases of severe encephalitis caused by Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) have been reported to German health authorities. In an endemic region in southern Germany, we conducted the seroepidemiological BoSOT study (“BoDV-1 after solid ...
