Molecular Determinants of Species-Specific Interactions Between Protein Kinase R and Poxvirus K3 Orthologs [PDF]
Protein kinase R (PKR) is an antiviral protein that is involved in molecular “arms races” with viral antagonists. As a result, some PKR inhibitors, including the vaccinia virus (VACV) protein K3 and its orthologs from other poxviruses only inhibit PKRs ...

Optimal immunization strategies for Saanen goats against goatpox [PDF]
Background Goatpox is a highly contagious disease caused by the Capripoxvirus, primarily affecting sheep and goats. Breeds like the Saanen are particularly vulnerable, especially in enzootic areas, and face risks not only from the disease itself but also

The Development of a Multivalent Capripoxvirus-Vectored Vaccine Candidate to Protect against Sheeppox, Goatpox, Peste des Petits Ruminants, and Rift Valley Fever [PDF]
Capripoxviruses are the causative agents of sheeppox, goatpox, and lumpy skin disease (LSD) in cattle, which cause economic losses to the livestock industry in Africa and Asia.

Development of a double-antigen sandwich ELISA for rapid and accurate detection of antibodies against Capripoxvirus [PDF]
Lumpy skin disease, goatpox, and sheeppox have rapidly spread in many countries, leading to the emergence of new mutant strains that have caused substantial damage and posed significant threats to animal husbandry in endemic areas. Effective surveillance

Pathogenicity and virulence of lumpy skin disease virus: A comprehensive update [PDF]
Lumpy skin disease (LSD), which was confined to the Africa for many decades, has expanded its geographical distribution to numerous countries across Asia and Europe in recent years. The LSD virus (LSDV) is a relatively poorly studied virus.

Mixed infection of peste-des-petits ruminants and Capripox in goats in South Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo [PDF]
Objective: We aimed at determining the prevalence and characterizing the CaPV, determining the CaPV-PPRV coinfection prevalence and providing data about phylogenetic relationship between the fusion protein of PPRV and P32 gene of CaPV.

Outbreak of recombinant lumpy skin disease virus in yaks: high mortality and systemic pathogenesis in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau yak herds. [PDF]
The emergence of recombinant Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV) strains in Asia has led to outbreaks marked by severe skin nodules, high transmissibility, and transboundary spread, resulting in significant economic losses to cattle industries in China and ...

Development of a luminex-based assay for the detection of anti-capripoxvirus and rift valley fever virus antibodies in domestic ruminants [PDF]
The three members of the genus capripoxvirus (CaPV), lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), sheeppox virus (SPPV), and goatpox virus (GTPV) have common hosts and areas of overlapping geographical distribution with Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV).

Development of a Multi-Locus Real-Time PCR with a High-Resolution Melting Assay to Differentiate Wild-Type, Asian Recombinant, and Vaccine Strains of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus. [PDF]
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) affects cattle and causes significant economic damage. The live vaccine derived from an attenuated strain is effective but is associated with mild disease and skin lesions in some vaccinated cattle.
