FILOVIRUS TRANSCRIPTION AND REPLICATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Filoviruses belong to the group of nonsegmented, negative-sense (NNS) RNA viruses and are members of the order Mononegavirales along with the rhabdo-, paramyxo-, nyami-, and bornaviruses. Mononegaviruses share a general mechanism to replicate and transcribe their genomes, reflected in functionally homologous proteins and a similar genome structure ...

Filovirus Mimics Deliver Effectively [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2016
Filoviruses such as Ebola are microns long but biophysical advantages for such encapsulating/enveloped viruses have remained obscure. Flexible ‘filomicelles’ have been made from amphiphilic block copolymers and demonstrate effective delivery of two very different hydrophobic compounds.

Intracellular Events and Cell Fate in Filovirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2011
Marburg and Ebola viruses cause a severe hemorrhagic disease in humans with high fatality rates. Early target cells of filoviruses are monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. The infection spreads to the liver, spleen and later other organs by blood

Production of human cathepsins using Expi293™ mammalian cell expression system for off‐target activity of cysteine protease inhibitor screening

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Following the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic, many direct‐acting antivirals targeting viral cysteine protease were developed. SARS‐CoV‐2, as well as other viruses, rely on cysteine proteases for their replication, suggesting future generations of antivirals targeting cysteine proteases will emerge.

Organoid Models to Study Human Infectious Diseases

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 58, Issue 11, November 2025.
Our manuscript reviews the role of organoids as models for studying human infectious diseases, highlighting their irreplaceable contributions to drug testing and vaccine development for significant infectious diseases including HIV, ZIKV, SARS‐CoV‐2 and MPXV.

Animal models for filovirus infections.

open access: yesZoological research, 2018
The family Filoviridae, which includes the genera Marburgvirus and Ebolavirus, contains some of the most pathogenic viruses in humans and non-human primates (NHPs), causing severe hemorrhagic fevers with high fatality rates. Small animal models against filoviruses using mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, and ferrets have been developed with the goal of ...

Possible leap ahead in filovirus therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2014
In a recent study published in Nature, Warren et al. describe the generation of a novel synthetic adenosine analogue, BCX4430, a synthetic drug-like small molecule that provides protection from Ebola and Marburg virus infection in animal models.
