In situ structure of the poxvirus portal complex

open access: yes
Poxviruses are a family of large, complex double-stranded DNA viruses that includes human pathogens such as variola—the cause of smallpox—and monkeypox. Recent outbreaks of mpox underscore the need for a better understanding of poxvirus biology

Clin Infect Dis [PDF]

open access: yes
BackgroundSome human poxvirus infections can be acquired through zoonotic transmission. We report a previously unknown poxvirus infection in 2 patients, 1 of whom was immunocompromised; both patients had known equine contact.MethodsThe patients were ...

Doctor of Philosophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
dissertationViruses undergo rapid genetic changes in response to selective forces imposed by host immune defenses. All organisms are at risk of virus infections, and the ancient and ongoing coevolution between viruses and their hosts have shaped genome ...

Poxvirus-based vaccines for cancer immunotherapy: new insights from combined cytokines/co-stimulatory molecules delivery and "uncommon" strains

open access: yes, 2014
Poxvirus-based vaccines have a long record of efficacy as both anti-tumour agents and vectors for gene therapy in different human tumour models. Interestingly, several studies of these vaccines have now entered the clinical evaluation phase for safety ...

A Flagellin-Poxvirus Antigen Vaccine: Strengths and Limitations

open access: yes, 2009
Bacterial flagellin is a potent adjuvant that enhances adaptive immune responses to a variety of antigens. The vaccinia virus antigens L1R and B5R are highly immunogenic in the context of the parent virus, but recombinant forms of the proteins are only ...

Poxvirus transcription

open access: yes, 2010
Most DNA viruses selfishly exploit the cellular transcription machinery of infected cells. Poxviruses are unique among DNA viruses in that they encode the majority of the enzymes required for RNA synthesis.

Dermatoses of nipple as molluscum contagiosum – Clinical dilemma

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2018
Molluscum contagiosum is a very common skin and mucosal disease of viral origin, caused by molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) 0 of poxvirus family. With the eradication of smallpox, MCV is the only member of the poxvirus family that causes substantial ...

Poxvirus A51R: A microtubule maestro and virulence virtuoso [PDF]

open access: yes
Seo et al.1 shed light on virus-host interactions as they reveal how poxvirus A51R stabilizes microtubules in infected cells, which impacts vaccinia virus virulence in mice by potentially inhibiting reactive-oxygen-species-dependent antiviral responses ...
