Structure and Characterization of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus GP38

Journal of Virology, 2020
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a priority pathogen that poses a high risk to public health. Due to the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with CCHFV infection, there is an urgent need to develop medical countermeasures for disease prevention and treatment. CCHFV GP38, a secreted glycoprotein of unknown function

Vectors of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Iran.

Journal of arthropod-borne diseases, 2015
Ticks are important vectors and reservoirs of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) virus. Human beings may be infected whenever the normal life cycle of the infected ticks on non-human vertebrate hosts is interrupted by the undesirable presence of humans in the cycle.

Phylodynamics of Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in South Russia

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
Phylodynamics of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) genotype V in South Russia was analyzed using 244 partial (452-571 nt) sequences in all three genomic segments and 38 complete genomic sequences. Despite increased number of sequences, the Russian lineage of the European genotype V (commonly termed GtVa) was distinct from GtV isolates from ...
