Comparative structural and functional analysis of orthomyxovirus polymerase cap-snatching domains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Orthomyxovirus Influenza A virus (IAV) heterotrimeric polymerase performs transcription of viral mRNAs by cap-snatching, which involves generation of capped primers by host pre-mRNA binding via the PB2 subunit cap-binding site and cleavage 10-13 ...

The Study of Viral RNA Diversity in Bird Samples Using De Novo Designed Multiplex Genus‐Specific Primer Panels

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Advances in the next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have significantly increased our ability to detect new viral pathogens and systematically determine the spectrum of viruses prevalent in various biological samples. In addition, this approach has also helped in establishing the associations of viromes with many diseases.

Vector‐borne diseases

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2017., 2017
Abstract After a request from the European Commission, EFSA's Panel on Animal Health and Welfare summarised the main characteristics of 36 vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) in 36 Disease Profiles. The risk of introduction in the EU through movement of livestock or pets was assessed for each of the 36 VBDs individually, using a semiquantitative Method to ...

Structural analysis of tumor‐related single amino acid mutations in human MxA protein

open access: yesCancer Communications, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 1-11, December 2015., 2015
Abstract Background Human myxovirus resistant protein A (MxA), encoded by the myxovirus resistance 1 (Mx1) gene, is an interferon (IFN)‐triggered dynamin‐like multi‐domain GTPase involved in innate immune responses against viral infections. Recent studies suggest that MxA is associated with several human cancers and may be a tumor suppressor and a ...

Molecular pathogenesis of H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza: the role of the haemagglutinin cleavage site motif

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, Volume 25, Issue 6, Page 406-430, November 2015., 2015
Summary The emergence of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza has caused a heavy socio‐economic burden through culling of poultry to minimise human and livestock infection. Although human infections with H5N1 have to date been limited, concerns for the pandemic potential of this zoonotic virus have been greatly intensified following experimental ...
