Proteolytic Processing of Marburg Virus Glycoprotein
Virology, 2000 Processing of the transmembrane glycoprotein (GP) of Marburg virus involved the conversion of an endo H-sensitive, ER-specific form into an endo H-resistant, Golgi-specific precursor that was cleaved into GP(1) and GP(2). Cleavage was mediated by furin or another subtilisin-like endoprotease with similar substrate specificity as indicated by mutational

Marburg Virus Persistence on Fruit as a Plausible Route of Bat to Primate Filovirus Transmission
Viruses, 2021 Marburg virus (MARV), the causative agent of Marburg virus disease, emerges sporadically in sub-Saharan Africa and is often fatal in humas. The natural reservoir for this zoonotic virus is the frugivorous Egyptian rousette bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus ...

Is Marburg Virus Enzootic in Gabon? [PDF]
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011 (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Marburg virus (MARV) nucleic acid was detected in Rousettus aegyptiacus bats in 2005 and 2006 in the midwest and southeast of Gabon. In this study we used MARV-specific real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and MARV-specific nested RT-PCR assay to screen 1257 bats caught ...
