Cryo-EM structure of the deltaretroviral intasome in complex with the PP2A regulatory subunit B56γ
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a pathogenic deltaretrovirus. Here the authors resolve the cryo-EM structure of the deltaretroviral intasome in complex with the human host PP2A regulatory subunit.

Human T‐cell leukemia virus type 1‐ (HTLV‐1‐) associated arthritis is a relatively common disease. However, tenosynovitis owing to adult T‐cell leukemia‐lymphoma (ATL) is a rare condition. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of tenosynovitis caused by conversion to acute ATL from one of the other ATL types. We present the case of a

Human T-Lymphotropic Viruses Evolution Possibly Explained by Primate Deltaretrovirus Geographical Segregation [PDF]
The primate T cell lymphotropic virus group comprises pathogenic and apathogenic agents found in human and simian hosts. Up to date, three types of the simian T cell lymphotropic virus/STLV and four types of the human T cell lymphotropic virus/HTLV have been isolated and characterized from non human primates and from human hosts respectively.

HTLV screening and confirmatory testing among blood donors in São Paulo: A cross‐sectional study
Abstract Introduction Human T‐cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV‐1/2) are transfusion‐transmissible retroviruses associated with severe diseases, and blood donor screening is mandatory in Brazil. Increasing HTLV‐related discard rates at our institution prompted this study to determine the prevalence and incidence of HTLV‐1/2 and to investigate

ABSTRACT Background Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) and Coxiella burnetii are important infectious pathogens of dairy cattle with potential implications for animal health, productivity and zoonotic transmission (in the case of C. burnetii). Because BLV may alter immune function, we hypothesize that infection with the virus could increase cattle ...
