Tracking ebolavirus genomic drift with a resequencing microarray.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Filoviruses are emerging pathogens that cause acute fever with high fatality rate and present a global public health threat. During the 2013-2016 Ebola virus outbreak, genome sequencing allowed the study of virus evolution, mutations affecting ...

The Silent Risk of Sudan Virus: A Review Addressing Global Health Vulnerabilities
Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2025.ABSTRACT Background and Aim Sudan Virus Disease (SVD) is a deadly hemorrhagic fever caused by the Sudan virus, first discovered in Sudan in 1976. This disease has been linked to several outbreaks in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in Uganda. The high fatality rate of SVD, ranging from 41% to 70%, emphasizes the critical need for effective preventive ...

Newly discovered ebola virus associated with hemorrhagic fever outbreak in Uganda.
PLoS Pathogens, 2008 Over the past 30 years, Zaire and Sudan ebolaviruses have been responsible for large hemorrhagic fever (HF) outbreaks with case fatalities ranging from 53% to 90%, while a third species, Côte d'Ivoire ebolavirus, caused a single non-fatal HF case.

Epitope-focused immunogen design based on the ebolavirus glycoprotein HR2-MPER region.
PLoS Pathogens, 2022 The three human pathogenic ebolaviruses: Zaire (EBOV), Bundibugyo (BDBV), and Sudan (SUDV) virus, cause severe disease with high fatality rates. Epitopes of ebolavirus glycoprotein (GP) recognized by antibodies with binding breadth for all three ...
