New Insights Into Retroviral Gag-Gag and Gag-Membrane Interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
A critical aspect of viral replication is the assembly of virus particles, which aresubsequently released as progeny virus. While a great deal of attention has beenfocused on better understanding this phase of the viral life cycle, many aspects of ...

Comparative Evaluation of Three Commercial Quantitative Real-Time PCRs Used in Japan for Bovine Leukemia Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an oncogenic virus belonging to the genus Deltaretrovirus and is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis. Proviral load (PVL) determined by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) is now widely used as an indicator of not

Bovine Leukemia Virus: Global Prevalence and Localized Resurgence in China Revealed by an Integrated Meta‐Analysis and Case Series

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL), causes substantial economic losses in the global cattle industry. While some regions have made progress in terms of control, the global epidemiological landscape and situation in China have not been fully elucidated.

Post-transcriptional Regulation of HTLV Gene Expression: Rex to the Rescue

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and other members of the Deltaretrovirus genus code for a regulatory protein named Rex that binds to the Rex-responsive element present on viral mRNAs.

Epidemiology and genetic diversity of bovine leukemia virus

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2017
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), an oncogenic member of the Deltaretrovirus genus, is closely related to human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV-I and II). BLV infects cattle worldwide and causes important economic losses.

Effects of Naturally Occurring Mutations in Bovine Leukemia Virus 5′-LTR and Tax Gene on Viral Transcriptional Activity

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is a deltaretrovirus infecting bovine B cells and causing enzootic bovine leucosis (EBL). The long terminal repeat (LTR) plays an indispensable role in viral gene expression. The BLV Tax protein acts as the main transactivator

Seroprevalence and haemato-biochemical effects of bovine leucosis in buffalo, Punjab, Pakistan

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2023
Enzootic bovine leucosis is caused by bovine leukaemia virus (BLV), a Deltaretrovirus belonging to the family Retroviridae. BLV causes huge economic losses to the dairy industry in the form of decreased milk production, premature culling, and poor ...

Circulating Cell‐Free DNA of Bovine Leukemia Virus: A Promising Biomarker for Enzootic Bovine Leukosis

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 466-476, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) causes Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) in approximately 1%–5% of infected cattle after a long latent period. Few biomarkers effectively distinguish non‐EBL from EBL cattle. Given the rapid turnover of tumor cells, we hypothesized that cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma could serve as a more effective biomarker for EBL ...

HIGHLIGHTS ON DISTINCTIVE STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF HTLV TAX PROTEINS.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Human T-cell Leukemia Viruses (HTLVs) are complex human retroviruses of the Deltaretrovirus genus. Four types have been identified thus far, with HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 much more prevalent than HTLV-3 or -4 .

Bovine Leukemia Virus DNA in Human Breast Tissue

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), a deltaretrovirus, causes B-cell leukemia/lymphoma in cattle and is prevalent in herds globally. A previous finding of antibodies against BLV in humans led us to examine the possibility of human infection with BLV. We focused
