Radiation‐induced peroxide rupture and its temperature‐dependent repair probed by homogeneous X‐ray irradiation

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 492-503, May 2026.
This manuscript investigates the X‐ray‐induced radiolysis of the catalytic C5‐peroxide adduct in urate oxidase crystals, utilizing a top‐hat X‐ray beam to monitor peroxide occupancy across extensive dose series at both 100 K and room temperature. The study reveals a kinetic phase transition where the peroxide decays rapidly via zero‐order kinetics at ...

Role of Bunyamwera Orthobunyavirus NSs Protein in Infection of Mosquito Cells [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus is both the prototype and study model of the Bunyaviridae family. The viral NSs protein seems to contribute to the different outcomes of infection in mammalian and mosquito cell lines. However, only limited information is available on the growth of Bunyamwera virus in cultured mosquito cells other than the Aedes albopictus C6/

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Characterization of the Gamboa Virus Serogroup (Orthobunyavirus Genus, Peribunyaviridae Family) [PDF]

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2018
Comprehensive comparative phylogenetic analyses were performed on 17 Gamboa serogroup viruses (GAMSVs) from distinct geographic regions in the Americas and other representative members of the genus Orthobunyavirus (Peribunyaviridae), based on small (S), medium (M), and large (L) open reading frame full-length and partial sequences.

Shuni Virus in Cases of Neurologic Disease in Humans, South Africa

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
We describe Shuni virus (SHUV) detection in human neurologic disease cases in South Africa. SHUV RNA was identified in 5% of cerebrospinal fluid specimens collected during the arbovirus season from public sector hospitals. This finding suggests that SHUV

Genetic elements regulating packaging of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus genome

Journal of General Virology, 2006
The genome of Bunyamwera virus (BUN; family Bunyaviridae, genus Orthobunyavirus) comprises three segments of negative-sense, single-stranded RNA. The RNA segments are encapsidated by the viral nucleocapsid (N) protein and form panhandle-like structures through interaction of complementary sequences at their 5′ and 3′ termini.
