TMEM41B Is a Pan-flavivirus Host Factor

open access: yesCell, 2020
Flaviviruses pose a constant threat to human health. These RNA viruses are transmitted by the bite of infected mosquitoes and ticks and regularly cause outbreaks. To identify host factors required for flavivirus infection we performed full-genome loss of

First detection and molecular characterization of a DENV‐1/DENV‐4 co‐infection during an epidemic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical Message In the 80s, dengue viruses type 1 and 4 (DENV‐1 and 4) were isolated in North region of Brazil. However, it was only after the DENV‐1 introduction in the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ) in mid‐1980s, that dengue became a nationwide ...

Roles of Non-Structural Protein 4A in Flavivirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Infections with viruses in the genus Flavivirus are a worldwide public health problem. These enveloped, positive sense single stranded RNA viruses use a small complement of only 10 encoded proteins and the RNA genome itself to remodel host cells to ...

Chimeric Yellow Fever/Dengue Virus as a Candidate Dengue Vaccine: Quantitation of the Dengue Virus-Specific CD8 T-Cell Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We have constructed a chimeric yellow fever/dengue (YF/DEN) virus, which expresses the premembrane (prM) and envelope (E) genes from DEN type 2 (DEN-2) virus in a YF virus (YFV-17D) genetic background. Immunization of BALB/c mice with this chimeric virus

Characterization of Zika virus endocytic pathways in human glioblastoma cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Zika virus (ZIKV) infections can cause microcephaly and neurological disorders. However, the early infection events of ZIKV in neural cells remain to be characterized. Here, by using a combination of pharmacological and molecular approaches and the human

Genome-Wide CRISPR Screen Identifies RACK1 as a Critical Host Factor for Flavivirus Replication

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2021
Cellular factors are critical in all facets of viral lifecycles, where overlapping interactions between the virus and host can be exploited as possible avenues for the development of antiviral therapeutics.

Role of Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Proteins in Flavivirus Replication and Assembly Complexes

open access: yesPathogens, 2019
Flavivirus replication in host cells requires the formation of replication and assembly complexes on the cytoplasmic side of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. These complexes consist of an ER membrane, viral proteins, and host proteins.

Generation and Implementation of Reporter BHK-21 Cells for Live Imaging of Flavivirus Infection

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2021
The genus Flavivirus within the family Flaviviridae includes many viral species of medical importance, such as yellow fever virus (YFV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and dengue virus (DENV), among others.
