Full Genome Characterization of the First Oropouche Virus Isolate Imported in Europe from Cuba

Viruses
On 27 May 2024, the Cuban Ministry of Health reported the first outbreak of Oropouche fever on the island. The etiologic agent, Oropouche virus (OROV), is a poorly understood arbovirus that has been known since the 1960s and represents a public health ...

Oropouche fever cases diagnosed in Italy in two epidemiologically non-related travellers from Cuba, late May to early June 2024. [PDF]

Euro Surveill
Oropouche fever is caused by Oropouche virus (OROV), transmitted primarily through the bite of infected midges, particularly of the genus Culicoides. The virus is mainly circulating in Central and South America where several countries reported an ongoing

ISG20: an enigmatic antiviral RNase targeting multiple viruses

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 1096-1111, June 2022., 2022
ISG20 is a broad antiviral inhibitor and a potent RNase in vitro. However, a precise understanding of its mechanism of action is lacking. In this review, we discuss the latest developments on this fascinating innate defense factor. Interferon‐stimulated gene 20 kDa protein (ISG20) is a relatively understudied antiviral protein capable of inhibiting a ...

Generation and characterization of a recombinant Rift Valley fever virus expressing a V5 epitope-tagged RNA-dependent RNA polymerase [PDF]

, 2011
The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp; L protein) of Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV; family Bunyaviridae) is a 238 kDa protein that is crucial for the life cycle of the virus, as it catalyses both transcription of viral mRNAs and replication of the

Sloths host Anhanga virus‐related phleboviruses across large distances in time and space

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 11-17, January 2020., 2020
Abstract Sloths are genetically and physiologically divergent mammals. Phleboviruses are major arthropod‐borne viruses (arboviruses) causing disease in humans and other animals globally. Sloths host arboviruses, but virus detections are scarce. A phlebovirus termed Anhanga virus (ANHV) was isolated from a Brazilian Linnaeus's two‐toed sloth (Choloepus ...
