Enzymatic Assays to Explore Viral mRNA Capping Machinery

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 22, Issue 23, Page 3236-3253, December 2, 2021., 2021
To escape recognition by the host innate immune system, viruses often incorporate 5′ caps into their mRNAs. The differences in mRNA capping make this process an interesting therapeutic target. Here, we review methods to explore the enzymes involved in cap biosynthesis. Such methods allow inhibitor selection, facilitating antiviral drug discovery, which

A method for minimizing the zone of low water flow velocity in a bottom center drain circular aquaculture tank

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 1221-1233, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Bottom center drain circular tanks in which water is injected tangentially to the tank wall are widely used in aquaculture. However, a torus‐shaped region about the center drain can develop into an irrotational zone that generates low velocities and poor mixing.

Ancient saltern metagenomics: tracking changes in microbes and their viruses from the underground to the surface

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 3477-3498, July 2021., 2021
Summary Microbial communities in hypersaline underground waters derive from ancient organisms trapped within the evaporitic salt crystals and are part of the poorly known subterranean biosphere. Here, we characterized the viral and prokaryotic assemblages present in the hypersaline springs that dissolve Triassic‐Keuper evaporite rocks and feed the ...

Heartland Virus in Lone Star Ticks, Alabama, USA

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We detected Heartland virus (HRTV) in lone star nymphs collected in 2018 in northern Alabama, USA. Real-time reverse transcription PCR selective for the small segment of the HRTV genome and confirmatory sequencing of positive samples showed high identity

The Cap-Snatching SFTSV Endonuclease Domain Is an Antiviral Target

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is a tick-borne virus with 12%–30% case mortality rates and is related to the Heartland virus (HRTV) identified in the United States.

Heartland Virus Neutralizing Antibodies in Vertebrate Wildlife, United States, 2009–2014

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
Since its discovery in 2009, the tickborne Heartland virus (HRTV) has caused human illness in Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee USA. To better assess the geographic distribution of HRTV, we used wildlife serology as an indicator.

Heartland virus: a novel and emerging tick-borne encephalitis

open access: yesRevista Mvz Cordoba, 2016
Heartland virus (HRTV) is a Bunyaviridae, phlebovirus that it has recently emerged as the causative agent of human disease characterized by thrombocytopenia and leukopenia in the United States and China.
