Genetic evolution of Gallid herpesvirus 2 isolated in China

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2017
Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2), which causes Marek's disease in chickens and has caused extensive economic losses, has recently evolved increased virulence in China. To better understand the genetic basis of the pathogenic characteristics changed and increased virulence, we sequenced the genomes of six new GaHV-2 strains (LCC, LTS, WC/1203, JL/1404, CC ...

Analyses of germline, chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6A and B genomes indicate emergent infection and new inflammatory mediators. [PDF]

, 2014
Human herpesvirus-6A (HHV-6A) is rarer than HHV-6B in many infant populations. However, they are similarly prevalent as germline, chromosomally integrated genomes (ciHHV-6A/B).

Discovery of the first PD-1 ligand encoded by a pathogen

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Large double-stranded DNA viruses deploy multiple strategies to subvert host immune defenses. Some of these tactics are mediated by viral gene products acquired by horizontal gene transfer from the corresponding hosts and shaped throughout evolution. The

Unusual presentation of orbital compartment syndrome due to complicated herpes zoster ophthalmicus: A case report

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
Herpesvirus reactivates from a latent infection in older adults and critically ill and immunocompromised individuals. Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) is a latent infection that affects the fifth cranial nerve.

On the Demographic and Selective Forces Shaping Patterns of Human Cytomegalovirus Variation within Hosts

Pathogens, 2018
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a member of the β -herpesvirus subfamily within Herpesviridae that is nearly ubiquitous in human populations, and infection generally results only in mild symptoms.

Evolutionarily conserved herpesviral protein interaction networks. [PDF]

, 2009
Herpesviruses constitute a family of large DNA viruses widely spread in vertebrates and causing a variety of different diseases. They possess dsDNA genomes ranging from 120 to 240 kbp encoding between 70 to 170 open reading frames. We previously reported

Dominant-Negative Proteins in Herpesviruses - From Assigning Gene Function to Intracellular Immunization [PDF]

, 2009
Investigating and assigning gene functions of herpesviruses is a process, which profits from consistent technical innovation. Cloning of bacterial artificial chromosomes encoding herpesvirus genomes permits nearly unlimited possibilities in the ...

Viral inhibition of the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP): a striking example of functional convergent evolution.

PLoS Pathogens, 2015
Herpesviruses are large DNA viruses that are highly abundant within their host populations. Even in the presence of a healthy immune system, these viruses manage to cause lifelong infections.

Novel Virus Related to Kaposi’s Sarcoma–Associated Herpesvirus from Colobus Monkey

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We determined the complete genome sequence of a virus isolated from a mantled guereza that died of primary effusion lymphoma. The virus is closely related to Kaposi’s sarcoma–associated herpesvirus (KSHV) but lacks some genes implicated in KSHV ...
