Structure and function of the nairovirus cap-snatching endonuclease [PDF]
Abstract Nairoviruses include several human pathogens such as Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) and Kasokero virus (KASV). The cap-snatching endonuclease (EN) domain of the viral polymerase is essential for transcription and represents a promising antiviral target.

Inhibition of Hazara nairovirus replication by small interfering RNAs and their combination with ribavirin [PDF]
Background The genus Nairovirus in the family Bunyaviridae contains 34 tick-borne viruses classified into seven serogroups. Hazara virus (HAZV) belongs to the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) serogroup that also includes CCHF virus (CCHFV) a major ...

Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) Extract Impairs Nairovirus Infection by Inhibiting the Attachment to Target Cells [PDF]
Hazara virus (HAZV) belongs to the Nairoviridae family and is included in the same serogroup of the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV). CCHFV is the most widespread tick-borne arbovirus. It is responsible for a serious hemorrhagic disease, for

Metatranscriptomic Analysis Uncovers RNA Virus Diversity in Ticks From the China-Russia-North Korea Border Region. [PDF]
Ticks serve as critical viral vectors, and border regions, acting as convergence zones of complex ecosystems, provide diverse habitats for ticks and their hosts, thereby underscoring the need to investigate the tick‐borne virome composition in such areas. In this study, metatranscriptomic analysis of five tick species, namely Haemaphysalis longicornis,

Identification and Phylodynamic Analysis of the Siberian Subtype of Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus in Tick-Bitten Patients From Northeastern China. [PDF]
Far Eastern (FE) tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) was thought to be the only endemic subtype in northeastern China. However, in 2024, the Siberian (Sib) subtype of TBEV was found in ticks. This study investigates Sib‐TBEV infection in tick‐bitten patients in the region.

Diversity of Viruses in <i>Ixodes ricinus</i> in Europe including Novel and Potential Arboviruses. [PDF]
Tick‐borne pathogens are responsible for many vector‐borne diseases in Europe, causing important problems for human and animal health. The composition of viral communities in ticks and their interactions with pathogens is little understood, especially in Eastern Europe, an area that represents a major hub for animal‐arthropod vectors exchanges. In this
