Immunoprophylaxis of Punta Toro virus (Phlebovirus, Bunyaviridae) infection in hamsters with recombinant Eimeria profilin-like antigen [PDF]

International Immunopharmacology, 2008
Recombinant Eimeria antigen (rEA) has been shown to have potent anticancer and antiviral activity in respective mouse disease models, presumably through robust immune stimulation that occurs via TLR11, a pattern recognition receptor that recognizes profilin-like proteins expressed on apicomplexan protozoans.

Genetic Characterization of Archived Bunyaviruses and their Potential for Emergence in Australia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
To better understand the diversity of bunyaviruses and their circulation in Australia, we sequenced 5 viruses (Gan Gan, Trubanaman, Kowanyama, Yacaaba, and Taggert) isolated and serologically identified 4 decades ago as members of the family Bunyaviridae.
