The Dynamic Capsid Structures of the Noroviruses [PDF]
Viruses, 2019 Noroviruses are responsible for almost a fifth of all cases of gastroenteritis worldwide. New strains evolve every 2–4 years by escaping herd immunity and cause worldwide epidemics. In the US alone, noroviruses are responsible for ~20 million cases and more than 70,000 hospitalizations of infected children, annually. Efforts towards a vaccine have been

Study on norovirus contamination of live bivalve molluscs using real-time PCR
Bulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2020 Foodborne and waterborne viruses are a major cause of human morbidity. Of them, noroviruses are recognised as the leading causative agents of sporadic infections and epidemic outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis in humans.

Attach Me If You Can: Murine Norovirus Binds to Commensal Bacteria and Fungi
Viruses, 2020 The presence of commensal bacteria enhances both acute and persistent infection of murine noroviruses. For several enteric viral pathogens, mechanisms by which these bacteria enhance infection involve direct interactions between the virus and bacteria ...

Gangliosides are Ligands for Human Noroviruses [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2014 Human noroviruses (NoVs) are known to recognize histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) as attachment factors. We report the first experimental evidence that sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids (gangliosides) are also ligands for human NoVs. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry-based carbohydrate binding measurements performed on assemblies (P ...

Genetic diversity of noroviruses in Brazil [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011 Norovirus (NoV) infections are a major cause of acute gastroenteritis outbreaks around the world. In Brazil, the surveillance system for acute diarrhoea does not include the diagnosis of NoV, precluding the ability to assess its impact on public health. The present study assessed the circulation of NoV genotypes in different Brazilian states by partial
