BAFfled by Poxviruses? [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2007
Successful viruses engage in a dynamic interplay with their hosts, where both utilize diverse strategies to impose their supremacy. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Wiebe and Traktman describe a novel interaction between vaccinia virus and mammalian cells.

Detection of Cetacean Poxvirus in Peruvian Common Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) Using a Pan-Poxvirus PCR

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Cetacean poxviruses (CePVs) cause ‘tattoo’ skin lesions in small and large cetaceans worldwide. Although the disease has been known for decades, genomic data for these poxviruses are very limited, with the exception of CePV-Tursiops aduncus, which was ...

Monkeypox Virus: A Comprehensive Overview of Viral Pathology, Immune Response, and Antiviral Strategies

open access: yesVaccines, 2023
Background: The years 2022–2023 witnessed a monkeypox virus (mpox) outbreak in some countries worldwide, where it exists in an endemic form. However, the number of infectious cases is continuously on the rise, and there has been an unexpected, drastic ...

Poxvirus Interactions with the Host Ubiquitin System

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
The ubiquitin system has emerged as a master regulator of many, if not all, cellular functions. With its large repertoire of conjugating and ligating enzymes, the ubiquitin system holds a unique mechanism to provide selectivity and specificity in ...

Zoonotic poxviruses

open access: yesVeterinary Microbiology, 2010
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Poxviruses compromise a group of long known important pathogens including some zoonotic members affecting lifestock animals and humans. While whole genome sequence analysis started to shed light into the molecular mechanisms underlying host cell infection, viral replication as well as virulence, our ...

Multi-epitope mRNA Vaccine Design that Exploits Variola Virus and Monkeypox Virus Proteins for Elicitation of Long-lasting Humoral and Cellular Protection Against Severe Disease

open access: yesJournal of Medical Science, 2022
Human monkeypox represents a relatively underexplored infection that has received increased attention since the reported outbreak in May 2022. Due to its clinical similarities with human smallpox, this virus represents a potentially tremendous health ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Poxvirus Evolution

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Poxviruses are often thought to evolve relatively slowly because they are double-stranded DNA pathogens with proofreading polymerases. However, poxviruses have highly adaptable genomes and can undergo relatively rapid genotypic and phenotypic change, as ...

Targeting envelope proteins of poxviruses to repurpose phytochemicals against monkeypox: An in silico investigation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The monkeypox virus (MPXV) has become a major threat due to the increasing global caseload and the ongoing multi-country outbreak in non-endemic territories.

Tattoo Skin Disease in Cetacea: A Review, with New Cases for the Northeast Pacific

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Tattoo skin disease (TSD) is a poxviral dermatopathy diagnosed in cetaceans. We review the literature on TSD aetiology, clinical characteristics, pathology and epidemiology and evaluate immune responses against the virus.
