PREVALENCE OF MAEDI-VISNA IN SHEEP HERDS
Progressive sheep pheumonia and maedi are terms that denote chronic virus sheep disease. Maedi-visna virus causes a disease named visna, which is a disease of nervous system with the symptoms of paresis and paralyses.

Clearance of Maedi-visna infection in a longitudinal study of naturally infected rams is associated with homozygosity for the TMEM154 resistance allele. [PDF]
Maedi-visna (MV) is a lentiviral disease of sheep responsible for severe production losses in affected flocks. There are no vaccination or treatment options with control reliant on test and cull strategies.

Development of a Bead-Based Multiplex Fluorescent Immunoassay to Detect Antibodies against Maedi-Visna Virus in Sheep. [PDF]
Simple Summary Serological tests that detect antibodies, especially indirect ELISAs, are the most common method to diagnose Maedi-visna virus (MVV) infections in small ruminants.

Maedi-visna virus Vif protein uses motifs distinct from HIV-1 Vif to bind zinc and the cofactor required for A3 degradation. [PDF]
The mammalian apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (APOBEC3 or A3) family of cytidine deaminases restrict viral infections by mutating viral DNA and impeding reverse transcription.

Ovine Progressive Pneumonia: Diagnosis and Seroprevalence in the South of Sonora, Mexico
Ovine progressive pneumonia (OPP) is the most severe presentation of small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) infection known as Maedi-Visna. Serological evidence in Mexico of the presence of this lentivirus was published in 1986.

Purification of Escherichia coli-expressed HIS-tagged Maedi-Visna p25 core antigen by Ni2+-chelate affinity chromatography [PDF]
In this study, recombinant histidine tagged p25 capsid protein of Maedi-Visna virus was developed. Part of the viral genome coding p25 protein was positioned downstream and in frame with a metal binding domain in pRSET-B vector.
