Complete Nucleotide Sequence of the Chiba Virus Genome and Functional Expression of the 3C-Like Protease in Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2000
We cloned the genome RNA of the Chiba virus (ChV; Hu/NLV/Chiba 407/1987/JP) and determined its complete nucleotide sequence. The genome is predicted to be a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA of 7697 bases, excluding a poly(A) tract.

Modeling the response of an endangered rabbit population to RHDV2 and vaccination

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2024.
We developed a model of RHDV2 transmission dynamics and riparian brush rabbit population dynamics to evaluate the potential effectiveness of a vaccination strategy for this population. The model includes the potential effects of nontarget rabbit species as carriers and reservoirs of the disease, as well as environmental transmission.

Integration of Planova filters in manufacturing processes of biologicals improve the virus safety effectively: A review of publicly available data

Biotechnology Progress, Volume 40, Issue 1, January/February 2024.
Abstract The capacity to remove viruses by Planova filters produced by Asahi Kasei, primarily by small virus‐retentive filters, were compiled from data in peer‐reviewed publications and, partly, publicly available data from presentations at conferences (Planova workshops).

Occurrence of Typical Domestic Animal Viruses in Wild Carnivorans: An Emerging Threat to the Conservation of Endangered Species

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Wild species are susceptible to several typical domestic animal pathogens, and the increasingly close contact between these groups is a predictive factor for disease exposure. Some viruses are important and old‐known, and others are emerging or reemerging for domestic carnivorans and have been identified as threats to the conservation of wild mammals ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Human Norovirus Variants from Outbreaks in Zhejiang Province, China, during 2021

Advances in Virology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background. Noroviruses are the most frequent cause of epidemic acute viral gastroenteritis in China. Objectives. The aim of this study was to determine the molecular epidemiological characteristics of norovirus outbreaks and the molecular genetic features of norovirus in Zhejiang Province during 2021. Methods.

Skin diseases in cetaceans. Scientific Committee document SC/60/DW8, International Whaling Commission, June 2008, Santiago, Chile [PDF]

, 2008
Micro-organisms that are known or suspected to cause skin diseases in cetaceans are briefly reviewed. Viruses belonging to four families i.e. Caliciviridae, Herpesviridae, Papillomaviridae and Poxviridae were detected by electron microscopy, histology ...

Functional analysis of RNA structures present at the 3' extremity of the murine norovirus genome: the variable polypyrimidine tract plays a role in viral virulence. [PDF]

, 2010
Interactions of host cell factors with RNA sequences and structures in the genomes of positive-strand RNA viruses play various roles in the life cycles of these viruses.

Functional central limit theorems for epidemic models with varying infectivity [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In this paper, we prove functional central limit theorems (FCLTs) for a stochastic epidemic model with varying infectivity and general infectious periods recently introduced in Forien, Pang and Pardoux (2020).The infectivity process (total force of infection at each time) is composed of the independent infectivity random functions of each infectious ...

SIS Epidemic Spreading with Heterogeneous Infection Rates [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
In this work, we aim to understand the influence of the heterogeneity of infection rates on the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) epidemic spreading. Employing the classic SIS model as the benchmark, we study the influence of the independently identically distributed infection rates on the average fraction of infected nodes in the metastable state.
