Characterization of a strain of quaranfil virus isolated from soft ticks in India. Is quaranfil virus an unrecognized cause of disease in human and animals?”

Heliyon, 2019
The soft ticks collected during a field survey in Karnataka state, India, in 1983, yielded a novel virus isolate, which caused mortality in an infant mouse upon inoculation.

Sinu virus, a novel and divergent orthomyxovirus related to members of the genus Thogotovirus isolated from mosquitoes in Colombia

Virology, 2017
The genome and structural organization of a novel insect-specific orthomyxovirus, designated Sinu virus, is described. Sinu virus (SINUV) was isolated in cultures of C6/36 cells from a pool of mosquitoes collected in northwestern Colombia. The virus has six negative-sense ssRNA segments. Genetic analysis of each segment demonstrated the presence of six

Epidemiological Study of Thogoto and Dhori Virus Infection in People Bitten by Ticks, and in Sheep, in an Area of Northern Spain [PDF]

, 2020
There is little information on Thogoto virus (THOV) and Dhori virus (DHOV)infection in Spain. A total of 283 serum samples from 150 human subjects (78 males, 72 females) bitten by ticks, as well as samples from 120 sheep (one per animal), were studied by

Proteomics computational analyses suggest that baculovirus GP64 superfamily proteins are class III penetrenes

Virology Journal, 2008
Background Members of the Baculoviridae encode two types of proteins that mediate virus:cell membrane fusion and penetration into the host cell.

Characterization of a novel thogotovirus isolated from Amblyomma testudinarium ticks in Ehime, Japan: A significant phylogenetic relationship to Bourbon virus

Virus Research, 2018
The genus Thogotovirus, as represented by Thogoto virus and Dhori virus, comprises a group of arthropod-borne viruses, most members of which are transmitted by ticks. Here we report the genetic and biological characterization of a new thogotovirus, designated Oz virus (OZV), isolated from the hard tick Amblyomma testudinarium in Ehime, Japan.

Membranfusion : Die komplexe Fusionsmaschinerie der Herpesviren [PDF]

, 2022
Enveloped viruses enter cells by fusion between viral and cellular membranes which is catalyzed by specialized fusogenic glycoproteins (g) on the viral surface. Many viruses use a single fusion protein for entry. In contrast, herpesviruses depend on a

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Orthomyxovirus from a Bothriocroton hydrosauri Tick Removed from a Blotched Blue-Tongued Skink (Tiliqua nigrolutea) in Tasmania, Australia

Zoonotic Diseases
Active and passive surveillance, followed by gene sequencing, continue to be used to identify a diverse range of novel bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in ticks with the potential to cause disease in vertebrate hosts following tick bite.

Combinatorial mutagenesis of rapidly evolving residues yields super-restrictor antiviral proteins.

PLoS Biology, 2019
Antagonistic interactions drive host-virus evolutionary arms races, which often manifest as recurrent amino acid changes (i.e., positive selection) at their protein-protein interaction interfaces.

Results of investigation of ticks in Volga river delta (Astrakhan region, 2017) for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (Nairoviridae, Orthonairovirus, CCHFV) and other tick-borne arboviruses

Вопросы вирусологии, 2019
Introduction. There are natural foci of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) that vectored by Hyalomma marginatum ticks in Volga river delta (Astrakhan region, South of Russia). The circulation of Dhori virus (DHOV) (Thogotovirus: Orthomyxoviridae) has

Geographical distribution and pathogenesis of ticks and tick-borne viral diseases [PDF]

, 2023
Ticks are obligatory hematophagous arthropods that harbor and transmit infectious pathogens to humans and animals. Tick species belonging to Amblyomma, Ixodes, Dermacentor, and Hyalomma genera may transmit certain viruses such as Bourbon virus (BRBV ...
