Modeling of the Ebola Virus Delta Peptide Reveals a Potential Lytic Sequence Motif

Viruses, 2015
Filoviruses, such as Ebola and Marburg viruses, cause severe outbreaks of human infection, including the extensive epidemic of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in West Africa in 2014. In the course of examining mutations in the glycoprotein gene associated with

Genetic identification of cytomegaloviruses in a rural population of Côte d'Ivoire. [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Cytomegaloviruses (CMVs) are herpesviruses that infect many mammalian species, including humans. Infection generally passes undetected, but the virus can cause serious disease in individuals with impaired immune function.

Non-Ebola Filoviruses: Potential Threats to Global Health Security

Viruses
Filoviruses are negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses often associated with severe and highly lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans and nonhuman primates, with case fatality rates as high as 90%.

Ebolavirus replication and Tetherin/BST-2

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Ebolavirus (EBOV) is an enveloped, non-segmented, negative-stranded RNA virus, which consists of five species: Zaire ebolavirus (ZEBOV), Sudan ebolavirus (SEBOV), Tai Forest ebolavirus (TFEBOV), Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BEBOV), and Reston ebolavirus (REBOV)

ARF6 integrates auxin and gibberellin signaling to promote stone cell lignification in pear via the HB49‐MYB169 module

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stone cells originate from secondary cell wall thickening and contain abundant lignin. Their excessive accumulation compromises pear fruit quality, yet the endogenous hormonal mechanisms governing stone cell formation remain unclear. Here, co‐expression network analysis using transcriptome data – the flesh of 206 sand pear accessions sampled at

The Perspectives of University Students Working With Rural Schools: Developing a Virtual Science Role Models and Mentors Framework

Science Education, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 879-894, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of university science majors who served in the Science Role Models and Mentors (SRM2) program through virtual participation in science classroom visits with high‐needs, third‐grade rural students across Texas, United States.

Induction of ebolavirus cross-species immunity using retrovirus-like particles bearing the Ebola virus glycoprotein lacking the mucin-like domain [PDF]

, 2012
Background The genus Ebolavirus includes five distinct viruses. Four of these viruses cause hemorrhagic fever in humans. Currently there are no licensed vaccines for any of them; however, several vaccines are under development.

Midbrain PAG Astrocytes Modulate Mouse Defensive and Panic‐Like Behaviors

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
Astrocytes in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) dynamically encode threat intensity and shape defensive action selection in mice. Real‐time Ca2+ imaging reveals robust astrocytic activation during predator odor and CO2 exposure. Aberrant astrocytic Ca2+ overactivation disrupts goal‐directed escape, biases behavior toward freezing, and induces ...

Assessing Host-Virus Codivergence for Close Relatives of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infecting African Great Apes [PDF]

, 2016
It has long been hypothesized that polyomaviruses (PyV; family Polyomaviridae) codiverged with their animal hosts. In contrast, recent analyses suggested that codivergence may only marginally influence the evolution of PyV.
