Sapovirus: an important cause of acute gastroenteritis in children [PDF]
Sapovirus infections are responsible for both sporadic cases and occasional outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis. While all age groups are affected, children younger than five years of age have the highest burden of disease. Sharing many similarities with closely-related noroviruses, common symptoms of sapovirus gastroenteritis include vomiting and ...

The RNA Helicase eIF4A Is Required for Sapovirus Translation [PDF]
ABSTRACT The eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) is a DEAD box helicase that unwinds RNA structure in the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of mRNAs. Here, we investigated the role of eIF4A in porcine sapovirus VPg-dependent translation. Using inhibitors and dominant-negative mutants, we found that eIF4A is required for viral translation and ...

Norovirus and Sapovirus Epidemiology and Strain Characteristics among Navajo and Apache Infants. [PDF]
Norovirus and sapovirus are important causes of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) among American Indian infants. We investigated the prevalence and molecular epidemiology of norovirus and sapovirus in American Indian infants who have historically experienced a

Intergenogroup Recombinant Sapovirus in Japan, 2007–2008 [PDF]
We investigated the incidence of sapovirus (SaV)-associated gastroenteritis in infants and children in Japan during 2007-2008 and characterized the diversity of SaV-positive strains. SaV was detected in 19 (4%) of 477 fecal specimens. The leading genogroup (79%, 15 cases) comprised intergenogroup recombinant SaVs (GII/GIV).
