Hidden Viral Sequences in Public Sequencing Data and Warning for Future Emerging Diseases

mBio, 2021
RNA viruses cause numerous emerging diseases, mostly due to transmission from mammalian and avian reservoirs. Large-scale surveillance of RNA viral infections in these animals is a fundamental step for controlling viral infectious diseases.

Analysis of multiply spliced transcripts in lymphoid tissue reservoirs of rhesus macaques infected with RT-SHIV during HAART. [PDF]

, 2014
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can reduce levels of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to undetectable levels in infected individuals, but the virus is not eradicated.

Reverse Genetics and Artificial Replication Systems of Borna Disease Virus 1

Viruses, 2022
Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) is a neurotropic RNA virus belonging to the family Bornaviridae within the order Mononegavirales. Whereas BoDV-1 causes neurological and behavioral disorders, called Borna disease (BD), in a wide range of mammals, its ...

Human Papillomavirus Type 16 Circular RNA Is Barely Detectable for the Claimed Biological Activity

mBio, 2022
Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) E7 oncoprotein plays an essential role in cervical carcinogenesis and is encoded predominantly by an E6*I mRNA through alternative RNA splicing of a P97 promoter-transcribed bicistronic E6E7 pre-mRNA.

Multifaceted contributions of Dicer2 to arbovirus transmission by Aedes aegypti

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are an increasing threat to global health. The small interfering RNA (siRNA) pathway is considered the main antiviral immune pathway of insects, but its effective ...

Dual function of the nuclear export signal of the Borna disease virus nucleoprotein in nuclear export activity and binding to viral phosphoprotein

Virology Journal, 2017
Background Borna disease virus (BoDV), which has a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA genome, causes persistent infection in the cell nucleus. The nuclear export signal (NES) of the viral nucleoprotein (N) consisting of leucine at positions 128 and 131 ...

Evolutionary Selection of the Nuclear Localization Signal in the Viral Nucleoprotein Leads to Host Adaptation of the Genus Orthobornavirus

Viruses, 2020
Adaptation of the viral life cycle to host cells is necessary for efficient viral infection and replication. This evolutionary process has contributed to the mechanism for determining the host range of viruses.
