Evidence for ADAR-induced hypermutation of the Drosophila sigma virus (Rhabdoviridae) [PDF]
Background ADARs are RNA editing enzymes that target double stranded RNA and convert adenosine to inosine, which is read by translation machinery as if it were guanosine. Aside from their role in generating protein diversity in the central nervous system,

Evolution of Genome Size and Complexity in the Rhabdoviridae
RNA viruses exhibit substantial structural, ecological and genomic diversity. However, genome size in RNA viruses is likely limited by a high mutation rate, resulting in the evolution of various mechanisms to increase complexity while minimising genome ...

Resistance to Rhabdoviridae Infection and Subversion of Antiviral Responses [PDF]
Interferon (IFN) treatment induces the expression of hundreds of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). However, only a selection of their products have been demonstrated to be responsible for the inhibition of rhabdovirus replication in cultured cells; and only a

Interferon Response and Viral Evasion by Members of the Family Rhabdoviridae [PDF]
Like many animal viruses, those of the Rhabdoviridae family, are able to antagonize the type I interferon response and cause disease in mammalian hosts. Though these negative-stranded RNA viruses are very simple and code for as few as five proteins, they

The Transcriptional Response of Drosophila melanogaster to Infection with the Sigma Virus (Rhabdoviridae) [PDF]
Bacterial and fungal infections induce a potent immune response in Drosophila melanogaster, but it is unclear whether viral infections induce an antiviral immune response.
