Calicivirus infections in children
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2003Caliciviruses are a major cause of human illness, and are listed as category B pathogens according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases classification of pathogens important for biodefense. Caliciviruses are commonly encountered in contaminated food and water, and a large variety has been implicated as sources of infection ...

The polypeptide of a human calicivirus
Archives of Virology, 1983Viral particles morphologically resembling animals caliciviruses in the faeces of a patient with acute gastroenteritis were purified, radiolabeled with [125I], and analyzed by SDS-PAGE. A single major structural protein with a mol. mass 62,000 daltons was identified by immunoprecipitation technique. The finding is consistent with human calicivirus-like

Sites of persistence of feline calicivirus
Research in Veterinary Science, 1989Various tissues were collected from eight cats persistently infected with feline calicivirus (FCV) strain 255 to determine the sites of viral persistence. Tissues were tested by virus isolation and an immunohistochemical technique in which infected cells were detected in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections using rabbit antiserum to FCV ...

Neutralizing epitopes of feline calicivirus [PDF]
Archives of Virology, 1991 A new collection of eighteen neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (N-MoAbs), raised against feline calicivirus (FCV), was used to analyze neutralizing epitopes of the F4 strain of FCV, the prototype strain of FCV in Japan. By cross-neutralization tests with the 20 FCV strains including Japanese.

Three-dimensional Structure of Calicivirus
Journal of Molecular Biology, 1994The Caliciviridae comprise a new family of single-stranded RNA viruses. While human caliciviruses cause gastroenteritis, the animal caliciviruses cause a wide range of diseases. We have determined the three-dimensional structure of a primate calicivirus using electron cryomicroscopy and computer image-processing techniques.

Calicivirus outbreaks in Hungary
Acta Alimentaria, 2011In year 2006, unusual clustering of cases caused by calicivirus was reported from several EU member states (Germany, Netherlands, Denmark, Ireland, Finland, Norway). Various foods (raw vegetables, fruits, cultivated shells, etc.) may be contaminated at the location of cultivation; this is called primary contamination.

Molecular Virology of Feline Calicivirus
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2008Caliciviridae are small, nonenveloped, positive-stranded RNA viruses. Much of our understanding of the molecular biology of the caliciviruses has come from the study of the naturally occurring animal caliciviruses. In particular, many studies have focused on the molecular virology of feline calicivirus (FCV), which reflects its importance as a natural ...

The pathway of feline calicivirus entry
Virus Research, 1995The requirement for a low pH-dependent step during feline calicivirus (FCV) entry into Crandell-Reese feline kidney cells was investigated. Chloroquine, a lysosomotropic agent that prevents acidification of intracellular vesicles, inhibited the production of infectious virus when present during adsorption and the initial stages of FCV replication, but ...

IV, 2. Feline calicivirus as a model for the study of calicivirus replication
2003Publisher Summary Caliciviruses (CVs) are small, nonenveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses that infect a broad range of hosts. This chapter discusses the basic features of feline calicivirus (FCV) and its contribution as a model for the study of CV replication. FCV is a common cause of upper respiratory tract disease in cats.

Genomic mapping of a calicivirus VPg
Archives of Virology, 1998We identified a primate calicivirus (Pan-1) VPg in Pan-1-infected cells. The Pan-1 VPg was associated with both genomic and subgenomic RNAs. RNase digestion of Pan-1 RNA yielded a residual protein of 16 kDa. The N-terminal sequence of Pan-1 VPg was determined by direct amino acid sequencing and mapped to a region of the genome equivalent to ...
