Complete genetic characterization and analysis of isolation of Sin Nombre virus [PDF]
This study reports completion of the genetic characterization of the entire genome of Sin Nombre (SN) virus (NMH10) detected in autopsy tissues from a patient who died of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). The large (L) genome segment was found to be 6,562 nucleotides in length and encoded a putative L polymerase that was 2,153 amino acids in length.

Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome: Current situation among rodent reservoirs and human population in the Xth Region, Chile [PDF]
In Chile, three Hantavirus seropositive rodent species (O longicaudatus, A olivaceus and A longipilis) are distributed from the Pacific coast to the Andes mountains and represent nearly 90% of the rodents captured in the Xth Region.

The coiled-coil domain structure of the Sin Nombre virus nucleocapsid protein. [PDF]
Hantaviruses can cause hemorrhagic fever with a renal syndrome and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome when transmitted to humans. The nucleocapsid protein of hantaviruses encapsidates viral genomic RNA and associates with transcription and replication complexes.

Diffusion and Home Range Parameters for Rodents: Peromyscus maniculatus in New Mexico [PDF]
We analyze data from a long term field project in New Mexico, consisting of repeated sessions of mark-recaptures of Peromyscus maniculatus (Rodentia: Muridae), the host and reservoir of Sin Nombre Virus (Bunyaviridae: Hantavirus).

Temporal analysis of Andes virus and Sin Nombre virus infections of Syrian hamsters. [PDF]
ABSTRACTAndes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) are rodent-borne hantaviruses that cause a highly lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans known as hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). There are no vaccines or specific drugs to prevent or treat HPS, and the pathogenesis is not understood.

Sin nombre virus glycoprotein trafficking
Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is a major representative of the New World hantaviruses and the most common cause of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) with high mortality in North America. Unlike other members of the family Bunyaviridae which mature in the Golgi complex, New World hantaviruses have been previously reported to mature at the cell surface.
