Mapping of transcription termination within the S segment of SFTS phlebovirus facilitated the generation of NSs-deletant viruses [PDF]
SFTS phlebovirus (severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus; SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that was first reported in China in 2009. Here we report the generation of a recombinant SFTSV (rHB29NSsKO) that cannot express the viral non-

Cellular mRNAs access second ORFs using a novel amino acid sequence-dependent coupled translation termination-reinitiation mechanism [PDF]
Polycistronic transcripts are considered rare in the human genome. Initiation of translation of internal ORFs of eukaryotic genes has been shown to use either leaky scanning or highly structured IRES regions to access initiation codons.

Phylogeography of Japanese encephalitis virus:genotype is associated with climate [PDF]
The circulation of vector-borne zoonotic viruses is largely determined by the overlap in the geographical distributions of virus-competent vectors and reservoir hosts.

Quantitative polymerase chain reaction: another tool to evaluate viable virus content in live attenuated orf vaccine [PDF]
A probe-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay based on the highly conserved DNA polymerase gene of orf virus (ORFV) for the quality control of attenuated orf vaccine is reported.

Involvement of C4 protein of beet severe curly top virus (family Geminiviridae) in virus movement. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Beet severe curly top virus (BSCTV) is a leafhopper transmitted geminivirus with a monopartite genome. C4 proteins encoded by geminivirus play an important role in virus/plant interaction.

Infection of human cytomegalovirus in cultured human gingival tissue. [PDF]
BackgroundHuman cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection in the oral cavity plays an important role in its horizontal transmission and in causing viral-associated oral diseases such as gingivitis.
