Sequence analysis reveals a conserved extension in the capping enzyme of the alphavirus supergroup, and a homologous domain in nodaviruses [PDF]
Background: Members of the alphavirus supergroup include human pathogens such as chikungunya virus, hepatitis E virus and rubella virus. They encode a capping enzyme with methyltransferase-guanylyltransferase (MTase-GTase) activity, which is an ...

Structural studies on members of the picornavirus superfamily [PDF]
The pathogenic members of the picornavirus superfamily have adverse effects on humans, their crops and their livestock. As structure is related to function, detailed structural studies on these viruses are important not only for fundamental understanding

Population dynamics of rhesus macaques and associated foamy virus in Bangladesh. [PDF]
Foamy viruses are complex retroviruses that have been shown to be transmitted from nonhuman primates to humans. In Bangladesh, infection with simian foamy virus (SFV) is ubiquitous among rhesus macaques, which come into contact with humans in diverse ...

Chapter 4 Picornavirus infections
The oldest member of the Picornaviruses group is polio virus, which was recognized early by clinicians because of its characteristic paralytic disease. This chapter examines the polio virus in regard to its virology, disease, and prevention by vaccines and chemoprophylaxis.

Genomic RNA folding mediates assembly of human parechovirus [PDF]
Assembly of the major viral pathogens of the Picornaviridae family is poorly understood. Human parechovirus 1 is an example of such viruses that contains 60 short regions of ordered RNA density making identical contacts with the protein shell.

Early Steps of Picornavirus Infection
Picornaviridae is a large family of viruses that cause a variety of infectious diseases in humans and animals. It includes important viruses such as poliovirus, hepatisis A virus and foot and mouth disease virus. Early steps of infection play important roles in determining the host range and the target organs for each virus.
