Ebolavirus’s Foibles [PDF]

Cell, 2017
Ebola virus disease poses a global health threat. Here, two studies by Wec et al. and Zhao et al. identified vulnerability in an internal fusion loop of an ebolavirus glycoprotein. Monoclonal antibodies elicited from immunization and isolated from a human survivor that recognized epitopes in this area neutralized all five ebolaviruses, guiding the ...

Ebolaviruscomparative genomics [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2015
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa is the largest documented for this virus. To examine the dynamics of this genome, we compare more than 100 currently available ebolavirus genomes to each other and to other viral genomes.

Ebolavirus evolution and emergence are associated with land use change. [PDF]

Ecol Monogr
Abstract Anthropogenic land use change facilitates disease emergence by altering the interface between humans and pathogen reservoirs and is hypothesized to drive pathogen evolution. Here, we show a positive association between land use change and the evolution and dispersal of Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV) and Sudan ebolavirus (SUDV).
