Crystal structure of a tick-borne flavivirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase suggests a host adaptation hotspot in RNA viruses

Nucleic Acids Research, 2021
The RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRPs) encoded by RNA viruses represent a unique class of nucleic acid polymerases. RdRPs are essential in virus life cycle due to their central role in viral genome replication/transcription processes.

Exposure of Wild Ungulates to the Usutu and Tick-Borne Encephalitis Viruses in France in 2009–2014: Evidence of Undetected Flavivirus Circulation a Decade Ago

Viruses, 2019
Flaviviruses have become increasingly important pathogens in Europe over the past few decades. A better understanding of the spatiotemporal distribution of flaviviruses in France is needed to better define risk areas and to gain knowledge of the dynamics

The Role of IFITM Proteins in Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Infection

Journal of Virology, 2021
TBEV infection may result in encephalitis, chronic illness, or death. TBEV is endemic in northern Asia and Europe; however, due to climate change, new centers of endemicity have arisen.

Replication enhancer elements within the open reading frame of tick-borne encephalitis virus and their evolution within the Flavivirus genus [PDF]

, 2011
We provide experimental evidence of a replication enhancer element (REE) within the capsid gene of tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV, genus Flavivirus).

Newly recognized mosquito-associated viruses in mainland China, in the last two decades

Virology Journal, 2011
There are four principal arboviruses in mainland China. Two kinds of them are mosquito-borne viruses, namely Japanese encephalitis virus and dengue virus, which lead to Japanese encephalitis, and dengue fever/dengue hemorrhagic fever respectively; the ...

Seroepidemiological surveys of tick-borne encephalitis virus and novel tick-borne viruses in wild boar in Nagasaki, Japan

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2022
In Japan, tick-borne viruses such as tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus have been identified in humans, animals, and ticks. In addition, novel tick-borne viruses have been isolated from ticks in Japan.

A New Tick-borne Encephalitis-like Virus Infecting New England Deer Ticks, Ixodes dammini

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1997
To determine if eastern North American Ixodes dammini, like related ticks in Eurasia, maintain tick-borne encephalitis group viruses, we analyzed ticks collected from sites where the agent of Lyme disease is zoonotic.

Molecular detection of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome and tick-borne encephalitis viruses in ixodid ticks collected from vegetation, Republic of Korea, 2014.

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2016
Ticks play an important role in transmission of arboviruses responsible for emerging infectious diseases, and have a significant impact on human, veterinary, and wildlife health. In the Republic of Korea (ROK), little is known about information regarding

Molecular studies of louping ill virus [PDF]

, 1991
The genomic RNA encoding the structural proteins of louping ill, a tickborne flavivirus, was cloned and sequenced. Sequence comparisons of louping ill envelope protein showed greater homology with tick-borne than mosquito-borne flaviviruses and greater ...
