Epidemiology and genetic diversity of bovine leukemia virus
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.

Bovine Leukaemia Virus: Current Epidemiological Circumstance and Future Prospective
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) is a deltaretrovirus that is closely related to human T-cell leukaemia virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV-1 and -2). It causes enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL), which is the most important neoplastic disease in cattle. Most BLV-infected

Seroprevalence and haemato-biochemical effects of bovine leucosis in buffalo, Punjab, Pakistan [PDF]
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 ...

Identification of novel RNA polymerase III promoters in bovine leukemia virus miRNA cluster by cross-taxa analysis of small non-coding RNAs. [PDF]
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an oncogenic deltaretrovirus that induces enzootic bovine leukosis. A defining feature of BLV is its viral miRNA cluster, which is transcribed atypically by RNA polymerase III via internal type 2 promoters rather than ...

Distinct stabilization of the human T cell leukemia virus type 1 immature Gag lattice. [PDF]
Human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) immature particles differ in morphology from other retroviruses, suggesting a distinct way of assembly. Here we report the results of cryo-electron tomography studies of HTLV-1 virus-like particles assembled in

Structural characteristics of the bovine leukemia virus genome: A mini review [PDF]
Enzootic bovine leukemia is an infectious disease with a chronic course caused by an RNA‑containing virus of the genus Deltaretrovirus. Despite the implementation of various programs for the elimination of leukemia, the disease is still widespread on the

Use of blood meals from stable flies to evaluate the bovine leukemia virus infection status in cattle herds: a pilot study. [PDF]
The incidence of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL), a type of B-cell lymphoma, is increasing in Japan. EBL is caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV; Retroviridae, Deltaretrovirus bovleu) infection and is diagnosed by detecting antibodies against BLV in milk ...

Mechanisms of leukemogenesis induced by bovine leukemia virus: prospects for novel anti-retroviral therapies in human [PDF]
In 1871, the observation of yellowish nodules in the enlarged spleen of a cow was considered to be the first reported case of bovine leukemia. The etiological agent of this lymphoproliferative disease, bovine leukemia virus (BLV), belongs to the ...
