First Record of Mosquito-Borne Kyzylagach Virus in Central Europe
RNA of Kyzylagach virus (KYZV), a Sindbis-like mosquito-borne alphavirus from Western equine encephalitis virus complex, was detected in four pools (out of 221 pools examined), encompassing 10,784 female Culex modestus mosquitoes collected at a fishpond ...

Microassay for Sindbis virus and interferon activity [PDF]
A simple and rapid microplaque assay for Sindbis virus was developed which uses microtiter plates and overlay medium consisting of methylcellulose and specific antibody to Sindbis virus. Discrete plaque formation was consistently observed on baby hamster kidney (BHK-15) cells within 24 h. The assay was reproducible, quantitative, and had about the same

Genetic determinants of Sindbis virus neuroinvasiveness [PDF]
After peripheral inoculation of mice, Sindbis virus replicates in a variety of tissues, leading to viremia. In some cases, the virus can enter the central nervous system (CNS) and cause lethal encephalitis. The outcome of infection is age and virus strain dependent.

The impact of RNA viruses on the posttranscriptional regulation of cellular gene expression is unclear. Sindbis virus causes a dramatic relocalization of the cellular HuR protein from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in infected cells.

Recombination between Sindbis virus RNAs [PDF]
The genome (49S RNA) of Sindbis virus is a positive-strand RNA of 11.7 kb that consists of two domains. The 5' two-thirds of the RNA codes for the proteins required for replication and transcription of the RNA. The 3' one-third codes for the structural proteins.

Research on basis of reverse genetics system of a Sindbis-like virus XJ-160
As a Sindbis-like virus (SINLV), XJ-160 virus was isolated from a pooled sample of Anopheles mosquitoes collected in Xinjiang, China, in 1990. Recombinant plasmid pBR-XJ160 is an infectious full-length cDNA clone of XJ-160 virus, from which rescued virus

Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) infrequently causes hemorrhagic fever in humans with a case fatality rate of 30%. Currently, there is neither an internationally approved antiviral drug nor a vaccine against the virus.

Development of sindbis virus as an oncolytic agent
The poor stability of most therapeutic viruses in the human bloodstream is a major obstacle in the field of cancer virotherapy, preventing systemic intravenous delivery to treat tumour metastases.

Old World alphaviruses were identified in 52 of 623 horses with febrile or neurologic disease in South Africa. Five of 8 Sindbis virus infections were mild; 2 of 3 fatal cases involved co-infections.
