Density waves theory of the capsid structure of small icosahedral viruses

open access: yes, 2006
We apply Landau theory of crystallization to explain and to classify the capsid structures of small viruses with spherical topology and icosahedral symmetry.

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,

Mannose binding lectin is required for alphavirus-induced arthritis/myositis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mosquito-borne alphaviruses such as chikungunya virus and Ross River virus (RRV) are emerging pathogens capable of causing large-scale epidemics of virus-induced arthritis and myositis.

Culex torrentium Mosquito Role as Major Enzootic Vector Defined by Rate of Sindbis Virus Infection, Sweden, 2009

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
We isolated Sindbis virus (SINV) from the enzootic mosquito vectors Culex torrentium, Cx. pipiens, and Culiseta morsitans collected in an area of Sweden where SINV disease is endemic. The infection rate in Cx. torrentium mosquitoes was exceptionally high

The alphaviruses: gene expression, replication, and evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The alphaviruses are a genus of 26 enveloped viruses that cause disease in humans and domestic animals. Mosquitoes or other hematophagous arthropods serve as vectors for these viruses.

Antiviral Properties of ISG15 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The type I interferon system plays a critical role in limiting the spread of viral infection. Viruses induce the production of interferon (IFN), which after binding to the IFN-α/β receptor (IFNAR), and triggering of the JAK/STAT signaling cascade ...

Class of {varphi}X174 Mutants Relatively Deficient in Synthesis of Viral RNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Nonpermissive cells infected with {varphi}X174 gene D amber mutants synthesized some sixfold less viral RNA than permissive cells. The decrease was unaffected by increasing the multiplicity of infection and was a consequence of an overall decrease in all

In vitro and in vivo expression of foreign genes by transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus-derived minigenomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A helper-dependent expression system based on transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus (TGEV) has been developed using a minigenome of 3·9 kb (M39).

Activity-dependent dynamics and sequestration of proteasomes in dendritic spines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The regulated degradation of proteins by the ubiquitin proteasome pathway is emerging as an important modulator of synaptic function and plasticity. The proteasome is a large, multi-subunit cellular machine that recognizes, unfolds and degrades target ...

Prevalence and identification of arthropod-transmitted viruses in Kassala state, Eastern Sudan

open access: yesLibyan Journal of Medicine, 2019
Vector-borne diseases are responsible for more than 20% of the infectious diseases worldwide. The prevalence of arboviruses transmit diseases to humans in Sudan has not been investigated.
