Endogenous Retroviruses of Non-Avian/Mammalian Vertebrates Illuminate Diversity and Deep History of Retroviruses [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2018
The deep history and early diversification of retroviruses remains elusive, largely because few retroviruses have been characterized in vertebrates other than mammals and birds.

First molecular detection of small ruminant lentivirus in a roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) in Italy [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Small Ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) infect sheep and goats worldwide, representing one of the most insidious viral infections in this species. Presence of antibodies against SRLVs was reported in wild ruminants in the USA and Europe and detection of ...

SERINC5 Counters Retroviruses and Non-Retroviruses

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
SERINC5 (serine incorporator 5), a member of the serine incorporator family, has been identified as a retrovirus restriction factor that inhibits the fusion of virions with the plasma membrane, thus blocking the release of the viral core into target ...

Vpx enhances innate immune responses independently of SAMHD1 during HIV-1 infection

Retrovirology, 2021
Background The genomes of HIV-2 and some SIV strains contain the accessory gene vpx, which carries out several functions during infection, including the downregulation of SAMHD1.

O-22 DIFFERENTIAL MUTATION PATTERN ASSOCIATED WITH HEPATITIS B E ANTIGEN SEROCONVERSION BETWEEN SUBGENOTYPE F1b CLUSTERS: POTENTIAL ROLE IN PATHOGENESIS

Annals of Hepatology, 2023
Introduction and Objectives: Two clusters of the subgenotype F1b (basal and cosmopolitan) have recently been described. The basal cluster has been associated with the early occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma in chronically infected patients from ...

The large extracellular loop of CD63 interacts with gp41 of HIV-1 and is essential for establishing the virological synapse

Scientific Reports, 2021
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) persists lifelong in infected individuals and has evolved unique strategies in order to evade the immune system. One of these strategies is the direct cell-to-cell spread of HIV-1.

Review and Perspectives on the Structure–Function Relationships of the Gag Subunits of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus

Pathogens, 2021
The Gag polyprotein is implied in the budding as well as the establishment of the supramolecular architecture of infectious retroviral particles. It is also involved in the early phases of the replication of retroviruses by protecting and transporting ...

Characterization of HIV-1 Epidemic in Kyrgyzstan

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Kyrgyzstan has one of the highest rates of HIV-1 spread in Central Asia. In this study, we used molecular–epidemiological approaches to examine the HIV-1 epidemic in Kyrgyzstan.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of HIV-1 CRF63_02A6 sub-epidemic

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
HIV-1 epidemic in Russia is one of the fastest growing in the world reaching 1.14 million people living with HIV-1 (PLWH) in 2021. Since mid-1990s, the HIV-1 epidemic in Russia has started to grow substantially due to the multiple HIV-1 outbreaks among ...
