Multiple conformations of trimeric spikes visualized on a non-enveloped virus
Many viruses utilize trimeric spikes to gain entry into host cells. However, without in situ structures of these trimeric spikes, a full understanding of this dynamic and essential process of viral infections is not possible. Here we present four in situ

Public Health Significance of Rotavirus Gastroenteritis
Background: Rotavirus is a type of virus that lacks the membranous layer (envelope); belonging to the family Reoviridae. Rotavirus derived its name from its characteristic appearance of a wheel like structure, as revealed by electron microscopy.

Egress of non-enveloped enteric RNA viruses
A long-standing paradigm in virology was that non-enveloped viruses induce cell lysis to release progeny virions. However, emerging evidence indicates that some non-enveloped viruses exit cells without inducing cell lysis, while others engage both lytic ...

A preliminary study of viral metagenomics of French bat species in contact with humans: identification of new mammalian viruses. [PDF]
The prediction of viral zoonosis epidemics has become a major public health issue. A profound understanding of the viral population in key animal species acting as reservoirs represents an important step towards this goal.

Review on the epidemiology of Bovine Rotavirus and its public health significance
A literature review was made to assess the epidemiology, public health importance, diagnostic and control methods of bovine rotavirus. Rotavirus is the genus name under the family Reoviridae which is characterized by segmented genome.
