VP24-Karyopherin alpha binding affinities differ between Ebolavirus species, nfluencing interferon inhibition and VP24 stability [PDF]
Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV), Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV), and Reston ebolavirus (RESTV) belong to the same genus but exhibit different virulence properties.

Potential Vaccines and Post-Exposure Treatments for Filovirus Infections
Viruses of the family Filoviridae represent significant health risks as emerging infectious diseases as well as potentially engineered biothreats. While many research efforts have been published offering possibilities toward the mitigation of filoviral ...

Mapping the zoonotic niche of Marburg virus disease in Africa. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Marburg virus disease (MVD) describes a viral haemorrhagic fever responsible for a number of outbreaks across eastern and southern Africa. It is a zoonotic disease, with the Egyptian rousette (Rousettus aegyptiacus) identified as a reservoir ...

Evidence that ebolaviruses and cuevaviruses have been diverging from marburgviruses since the Miocene [PDF]
An understanding of the timescale of evolution is critical for comparative virology but remains elusive for many RNA viruses. Age estimates based on mutation rates can severely underestimate divergences for ancient viral genes that are evolving under ...

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%.
