Genetic characterization of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus strains isolated from cattle in Israel

Journal of General Virology, 2015
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV), a member of the genus Orbivirus not reported previously in Israel, was isolated from Israeli cattle during a 'bluetongue-like' disease outbreak in 2006. To ascertain the origin of this new virus, three isolates from the outbreak were fully sequenced and compared with available sequences.

ZAP inhibits double-stranded RNA virus infection by degrading negative-strand RNA and blocking the elongation phase of viral protein synthesis

Cell Reports
Summary: Zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP) is a crucial host restriction factor that recognizes CpG dinucleotides in single-stranded RNAs, yet its role in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus replication remains uncharacterized.
