Faustovirus-Like Asfarvirus in Hematophagous Biting Midges and Their Vertebrate Hosts [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Faustovirus, a new Asfarviridae-related giant virus, was recently isolated in Vermamoeba vermiformis, a protist found in sewage water in various geographical locations and occasionally reported in human eye infection cases.

Biochemical characterization of mRNA capping enzyme from Faustovirus [PDF]
Rna, 2023 Abstract The mammalian mRNA 5’ cap structures play important roles in cellular processes such as nuclear export, efficient translation, and evading cellular innate immune surveillance and regulating 5’- mediated mRNA turnover. Hence, installation of the proper 5’ cap is crucial in therapeutic applications of synthetic mRNA.

"More" Artificial mRNAs: Beyond the Art of Nature. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Inspired by nature yet transcending it, synthetic mRNA is being redesigned beyond the canonical architecture. This review highlights emerging forms—circular, branched, and self‐amplifying mRNAs—that expand stability, persistence, and functional control, illustrating how artificial mRNA is evolving into a new medium for programmable biological ...

Murine Norovirus: Additional Protocols for Basic and Antiviral Studies
Current Protocols, Volume 3, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Murine norovirus (MNV) is a positive‐sense, plus‐stranded RNA virus in the Caliciviridae family. Viruses in this family replicate in the intestine and are transmitted by the fecal‐oral route. MNV is related to the human noroviruses, which cause the majority of nonbacterial gastroenteritis worldwide.
