Severe Encephalitis Caused by Toscana Virus, Greece
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 Phleboviruses belong to a large group of arboviruses that are transmitted to humans by sandflies. Infections by these viruses in humans manifest as a febrile disease, so-called “three- day fever” (“Pappataci fever”), while Toscana virus (TOSV) may cause neuroinvasive disease.

Functional analysis of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus Gc glycoprotein [PDF]
, 2009 The virion glycoproteins Gn and Gc of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) are encoded by the M RNA genome segment and have roles in both viral attachment and membrane fusion.

Lettuce Big‐Vein Associated Virus ORF3 Encodes a Functional 30K Movement Protein
Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.AlphaFold2 + FoldSeek structure guided search predicts the movement protein of lettuce big‐vein associated virus despite low sequence similarity. ABSTRACT Movement proteins (MPs) modulate the size exclusion limit of plasmodesmata—membrane‐lined channels connecting plant cells—thereby allowing cell‐to‐cell movement and systemic spread of plant viruses ...

ChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 12, March 26, 2025.Caffeoylquinic acids derived from medicinal plants were evaluated for their potential as inhibitors of the Rift Valley Fever Virus, specifically targeting the LRP1‐CR17 protein. The study employed DFT, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations to analyze these compounds. The results showed strong binding affinities to the LRP1‐CR17 receptor,

Activation of PKR by Bunyamwera virus is independent of the viral interferon antagonist NSs [PDF]
, 2003 Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a by-product of viral RNA polymerase activity, and its recognition is one mechanism by which the innate immune system is activated.

The Role of Temperature in Transmission of Zoonotic Arboviruses
Viruses, 2019 We reviewed the literature on the role of temperature in transmission of zoonotic arboviruses. Vector competence is affected by both direct and indirect effects of temperature, and generally increases with increasing temperature, but results may vary by ...
