NSs: the multifaceted bunyavirus virulence factor. [PDF]

open access: yesNpj Viruses
Abstract Bunyaviricetes represents a diverse class of RNA viruses, including hundreds of species distributed worldwide that threaten human and animal health. This Perspective briefly overviews bunyaviruses infecting humans and other mammals, focusing on their key virulence factor, the nonstructural protein NSs. By subverting host

A rare fatal case of a novel bunyavirus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2016
Herein we describe a rare fatal case of a novel bunyavirus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) in a 62-year-old female patient. The novel bunyavirus infects patients with or without HLH who have similar clinical features such as fever ...

Transcription of a Recombinant Bunyavirus RNA Template by Transiently Expressed Bunyavirus Proteins

open access: yesVirology, 1995
We describe a convenient system for analyzing bunyavirus transcription using a recombinant RNA template derived from the plasmid pBUNSCAT, which comprises a negative-sense reporter gene (chloramphenicol acetyltransferase or CAT) flanked by the exact 5' and 3' untranslated regions of the Bunyamwera virus (BUN) S RNA segment.

Modulation of Potassium Channels Inhibits Bunyavirus Infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2016
Bunyaviruses are considered to be emerging pathogens facilitated by the segmented nature of their genome that allows reassortment between different species to generate novel viruses with altered pathogenicity. Bunyaviruses are transmitted via a diverse range of arthropod vectors, as well as rodents, and have established a global disease range with ...

Genome Sequences of a Novel Vietnamese Bat Bunyavirus [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Announcements, 2016
ABSTRACT To document the viral zoonotic risks in Vietnam, fecal samples were systematically collected from a number of mammals in southern Vietnam and subjected to agnostic deep sequencing. We describe here novel Vietnamese bunyavirus sequences detected in bat feces. The complete L and S segments from 14 viruses were determined.

Illuminating bunyavirus entry into host cells with fluorescence

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2023
AbstractBunyavirales constitute the largest order of enveloped RNA viruses, many members of which cause severe diseases in humans and domestic animals. In recent decades, innovative fluorescence‐based methods have paved the way to visualize and track single fluorescent bunyaviral particles in fixed and live cells.

Multimeric single-domain antibody complexes protect against bunyavirus infections [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The World Health Organization has included three bunyaviruses posing an increasing threat to human health on the Blueprint list of viruses likely to cause major epidemics and for which no, or insufficient countermeasures exist.

Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Chimeras Expressing the Oropouche Virus Glycoproteins Elicit Protective Immune Responses in Mice

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Oropouche virus (OROV) infection of humans is associated with a debilitating febrile illness that can progress to meningitis or encephalitis. First isolated from a forest worker in Trinidad and Tobago in 1955, the arbovirus OROV has since been detected ...
