Morphologic Differentiation of Viruses beyond the Family Level

Viruses, 2014
Electron microscopy has been instrumental in the identification of viruses by being able to characterize a virus to the family level. There are a few cases where morphologic or morphogenesis factors can be used to differentiate further, to the genus ...

Knockdown of piRNA pathway proteins results in enhanced Semliki forest virus production in mosquito cells [PDF]

, 2013
The exogenous siRNA pathway is important in restricting arbovirus infection in mosquitoes. Less is known about the role of the PIWI-interacting RNA pathway, or piRNA pathway, in antiviral responses. Viral piRNA-like molecules have recently been described

Establishment of an Early Prediction Model for Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome‐Associated Encephalitis

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Background Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease primarily transmitted by ticks. The development of encephalitis in SFTS patients significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes. However, the understanding of SFTS‐associated encephalitis (SFTSAE) is still limited. This study aimed to identify

Mutations in the Schmallenberg virus Gc glycoprotein facilitate cellular protein synthesis shutoff and restore pathogenicity of NSs deletion mutants in mice [PDF]

, 2016
Serial passage of viruses in cell culture has been traditionally used to attenuate virulence and identify determinants of viral pathogenesis. In a previous study, we found that a strain of Schmallenberg virus (SBV) serially passaged in tissue culture ...

Molecular biology of the Bunyaviridae

Journal of General Virology, 1990
Introduction. More than 300 viruses, mostly arthropod-transmitted, are classified into the family Bunyaviridae, making it one of the largest groupings of animal viruses (Karabatsos, 1985). Until relatively recently these viruses were somewhat the ‘Cinderellas’ of animal virology, but with the increased recognition of their role in human diseases ...

In silico design and evaluation of a multiepitope vaccine targeting the nucleoprotein of Puumala orthohantavirus

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 92, Issue 10, Page 1161-1176, October 2024.
Abstract The Puumala orthohantavirus is present in the body of the bank vole (Myodes glareolus). Humans infected with this virus may develop hemorrhagic fever accompanying renal syndrome. In addition, the infection may further lead to the failure of an immune system completely.

Conserved Endonuclease Function of Hantavirus L Polymerase

Viruses, 2016
Hantaviruses are important emerging pathogens belonging to the Bunyaviridae family. Like other segmented negative strand RNA viruses, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) also known as L protein of hantaviruses lacks an intrinsic “capping activity ...

Control strategies for emerging infectious diseases: Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever management

Health Science Reports, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Background and Aims Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a significant public health concern transmitted by ticks. This study seeks to thoroughly grasp the epidemiology and transmission patterns of CCHF, which is caused by the CCHF virus (CCHFV), a member of the Nairovirus genus in the Bunyaviridae family.
