Short ‘1.2× Genome’ Infectious Clone Initiates Kolmiovirid Replication in Boa constrictor Cells [PDF]
Human hepatitis D virus (HDV) depends on hepatitis B virus co-infection and its glycoproteins for infectious particle formation. HDV was the sole known deltavirus for decades and believed to be a human-only pathogen.

Rapid Construction of an Infectious Clone of the Zika Virus, Strain ZKC2 [PDF]
Zika virus (ZIKV) has had detrimental effects on global public health in recent years. This is because the management of the disease has been limited, in part because its pathogenic mechanisms are not yet completely understood.
