Ebolavirus Δ-Peptide Immunoadhesins Inhibit Marburgvirus and Ebolavirus Cell Entry [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2011 ABSTRACT With the exception of Reston and Lloviu viruses, filoviruses (marburgviruses, ebolaviruses, and “cuevaviruses”) cause severe viral hemorrhagic fevers in humans. Filoviruses use a class I fusion protein, GP 1,2 , to bind to an unknown, but shared, cell surface receptor to initiate virus-cell fusion.

A Pan-ebolavirus Monoclonal Antibody Cocktail Provides Protection against Ebola and Sudan Viruses.
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023 Filoviruses, including ebolaviruses and marburgviruses, can cause severe and often fatal disease in humans. Over the past several years, antibody therapy has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of filovirus disease.

Ebolavirus Species-Specific Interferon Antagonism Mediated by VP24
Viruses, 2023 Members of the Ebolavirus genus demonstrate a marked differences in pathogenicity in humans with Ebola (EBOV) being the most pathogenic, Bundibugyo (BDBV) less pathogenic, and Reston (RESTV) is not known to cause a disease in humans.

Lactic acid bacterial surface display of scytovirin inhibitors for anti-ebolavirus infection
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Scytovirin (SVN) is a lectin from cyanobacteria which has a strong inhibitory activity against Ebola virus infection. We engineered scytovirin as the inhibitor for surface display of lactic acid bacteria to block Ebola virus infection.

Ebolavirus: Infection, Vaccination and Control [PDF]
Molecular Genetics, Microbiology and Virology, 2021 Members of the genus Ebolavirus (family Filoviridae) are among the deadliest viral pathogens spread throughout the world with severe rate of mortality, at least 90% in some outbreaks. Their virions are filamentous and enveloped with enclosed negative-sense single-stranded RNA genome.
