Modulation of the interferon response during henipavirus infection

, 2011
© 2011 Dr. Elena R. VirtueHendra and Nipah viruses, members of the genus Henipavirus within the family Paramyxoviridae, cause lethal infection in humans and animals. The exact mechanism of pathogenesis for these viruses is unknown.

Genetic Characterization of Nipah Virus, Bangladesh, 2004

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Until 2004, identification of Nipah virus (NV)-like outbreaks in Bangladesh was based on serology. We describe the genetic characterization of a new strain of NV isolated during outbreaks in Bangladesh (NV-B) in 2004, which confirms that NV was the ...

The E3 ligase RAD18-mediated ubiquitination of henipavirus matrix protein promotes its nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking and viral egress

Emerging Microbes and Infections
The nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking of matrix proteins (M) is essential for henipavirus budding, with M protein ubiquitination playing a pivotal role in this dynamic process.

A Functional Genomics Approach to Henipavirus Research: The Role of Nuclear Proteins, MicroRNAs and Immune Regulators in Infection and Disease.

, 2018
Hendra and Nipah viruses (family Paramyxoviridae, genus Henipavirus) are zoonotic RNA viruses that cause lethal disease in humans and are designated as Biosafety Level 4 (BSL4) agents.

Isolation and Full-Genome Characterization of Nipah Viruses from Bats, Bangladesh

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
Despite molecular and serologic evidence of Nipah virus in bats from various locations, attempts to isolate live virus have been largely unsuccessful. We report isolation and full-genome characterization of 10 Nipah virus isolates from Pteropus medius ...

Characterization of functional human antibodies targeting henipavirus and flavivirus glycoproteins

, 2021
The henipaviruses Hendra (HeV) and Nipah (NiV), and the flavivirus yellow fever (YFV), pose massive global public health threats. No small molecule or antibody-based countermeasures are available to treat humans infected by HeV, NiV, or YFV, and major ...

Henipavirus and Tioman Virus Antibodies in Pteropodid Bats, Madagascar

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Specimens were obtained from the 3 Malagasy fruit bats, Pteropus rufus, Eidolon dupreanum, and Rousettus madagascariensis. Antibodies against Nipah, Hendra, and Tioman viruses were detected by immunoassay in 23 and by serum neutralization tests in 3 of ...

Sub-Nucleolar Trafficking of Hendra Virus Matrix Protein Is Regulated by Ubiquitination

Viruses
Hendra virus (HeV) is a highly pathogenic member of the Henipavirus genus (family Paramyxoviridae, order Mononegavirales), for which all basic replication processes are located in the cytoplasm.

Characterization of an mRNA-Encoded Antibody Against Henipavirus

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Nipah and Hendra viruses are lethal zoonotic pathogens with no approved vaccines or therapeutics. mRNA produced via in vitro transcription enables endogenous protein expression and cost reduction.
