Comparative Analysis of Bisexual and Parthenogenetic Populations in Haemaphysalis Longicornis [PDF]
Haemaphysalis longicornis, a three-host tick with a wide host range, is widely distributed in different countries and regions. It stands out among ticks due to its unique feature of having both parthenogenetic and bisexual populations.

Isolation of Heartland Virus from Lone Star Ticks, Georgia, USA, 2019
Report of a human death and exposure of white-tailed deer to Heartland virus (HRTV) in Georgia, USA, prompted the sampling of questing ticks during 2018–2019 in 26 sites near where seropositive deer were captured and the residence of the human case ...

Humoral immunity to phlebovirus infection
Phleboviruses are global zoonotic pathogens that can cause severe disease when transmitted to humans. Here we discuss how studying antibody responses during natural infection and the identification of neutralizing epitopes on the mature polyproteins Gn and Gc are informing the development of phlebovirus vaccines.

ISG20: an enigmatic antiviral RNase targeting multiple viruses
ISG20 is a broad antiviral inhibitor and a potent RNase in vitro. However, a precise understanding of its mechanism of action is lacking. In this review, we discuss the latest developments on this fascinating innate defense factor. Interferon‐stimulated gene 20 kDa protein (ISG20) is a relatively understudied antiviral protein capable of inhibiting a ...

Enzymatic Assays to Explore Viral mRNA Capping Machinery
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

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.

The viral susceptibility of the Haloferax species [PDF]
Viruses can infect members of all three domains of life. However, little is known about viruses infecting archaea and the mechanisms that determine their host interactions are poorly understood.

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 ...
