Charakterisierung der Rolle des endosomalen Recycling-Systems für den intrazellulären Transport des Marburg Virus Glykoproteins [PDF]
Das Marburg Virus (MARV), das zur Familie der Filoviridae gezählt wird, ist ein Erreger schwerer Fieber mit Letalitätsraten von bis zu 90 %. Das Glykoprotein GP stellt das einzige Oberflächenprotein des MARV dar und daher ist sein korrekter Transport zu ...

Die IRE1-abhängige ER-Stress-Antwort wird durch antagonistische Effekte der Marburg Virus Proteine GP und VP30 ausbalanciert [PDF]
Das Marburg Virus (MARV) gehört, wie das Ebola Virus (EBOV), zur Familie der Filoviridae. Im Menschen führt eine Infektion mit dem MARV häufig zu schweren Fiebererkrankungen mit einer Letalitätsrate von bis zu 90%.

Filoviral Immune Evasion Mechanisms
The Filoviridae family of viruses, which includes the genera Ebolavirus (EBOV) and Marburgvirus (MARV), causes severe and often times lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans. Filoviral infections are associated with ineffective innate antiviral responses as a

Ebola Virus Localization in the Macaque Reproductive Tract during Acute Ebola Virus Disease. [PDF]
Sexual transmission of Ebola virus (EBOV) has been demonstrated more than a year after recovery from the acute phase of Ebola virus disease (EVD). The mechanisms underlying EBOV persistence and sexual transmission are not currently understood.
