Ebolavirus and Marburgvirus: Insight the Filoviridae family [PDF]

Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2008
Ebolavirus and Marburgvirus (belonging to the Filoviridae family) emerged four decades ago and cause epidemics of haemorrhagic fever with high case-fatality rates. The genome of filoviruses encodes seven proteins. No significant homology is observed between filovirus proteins and any known macromolecule.

An immunotoxin targeting Ebola virus glycoprotein inhibits Ebola virus production from infected cells.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Ebola virus (EBOV), a member of the mononegaviral family Filoviridae, causes severe disease associated with high lethality in humans. Despite enormous progress in development of EBOV medical countermeasures, no anti-EBOV treatment has been approved.

DYNAMICAL SYSTEM FOR EBOLA OUTBREAK WITHIN QUARANTINE AND VACCINATION TREATMENTS

Barekeng, 2023
Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) is an infectious disease with a high mortality rate which is caused by the virus from the family of Filoviridae, genus of Ebolavirus. Therefore, this research works on the developing model of Ebola disease spread with SLSHVEQIHR

Development of a Pan-Filoviridae SYBR Green qPCR Assay for Biosurveillance Studies in Bats

Viruses, 2023
Recent studies have indicated that bats are hosts to diverse filoviruses. Currently, no pan-filovirus molecular assays are available that have been evaluated for the detection of all mammalian filoviruses.

Morphologic Differentiation of Viruses beyond the Family Level

Viruses, 2014
Electron microscopy has been instrumental in the identification of viruses by being able to characterize a virus to the family level. There are a few cases where morphologic or morphogenesis factors can be used to differentiate further, to the genus ...

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High-Throughput Sequencing Data Mining. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.
