The Unique Phylogenetic Position of a Novel Tick-Borne Phlebovirus Ensures an Ixodid Origin of the Genus Phlebovirus

open access: yesmSphere, 2018
The recent emergence of novel tick-borne RNA viruses has complicated the epidemiological landscape of tick-borne infectious diseases, posing a significant challenge to public health systems that seek to counteract tick-borne diseases.

Animal Models of Tick-Borne Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens, 2013
Tick-borne hemorrhagic fever viruses (TBHFV) are detected throughout the African and Eurasian continents and are an emerging or re-emerging threat to many nations. Due to the largely sporadic incidences of these severe diseases, information on human cases and research activities in general have been limited.

Diversity of viruses in Ixodes ricinus, and characterization of a neurotropic strain of Eyach virus

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, 2016
Ticks transmit more pathogens—including bacteria, parasites and viruses—than any other arthropod vector. Although the epidemiological status of many tick-borne bacteria is very well characterized, tick-borne viruses are still relatively under-studied ...

Rickettsiosis subcommittee report to the tick-borne disease working group.

open access: yes, 2022
Tick-borne rickettsial infections are serious, common, and difficult to diagnose. Among the most important factors leading to failure to diagnose and treat tick-borne rickettsioses effectively is a lack of consideration of the potential diagnosis by ...

Functional and Immunological Relevance of Anaplasma marginale Major Surface Protein 1a Sequence and Structural Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bovine anaplasmosis is caused by cattle infection with the tick-borne bacterium, Anaplasma marginale. The major surface protein 1a (MSP1a) has been used as a genetic marker for identifying A.

Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) on birds migrating to the island of Ponza, Italy, and the tick-borne pathogens they carry

open access: yes, 2021
Seasonal migration of birds between breeding and wintering areas can facilitate the spread of tick species and tick-borne diseases. In this study, 151 birds representing 10 different bird species were captured on Ponza Island, an important migratory ...

The Ecology of New Constituents of the Tick Virome and Their Relevance to Public Health

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Ticks are vectors of several pathogens that can be transmitted to humans and their geographic ranges are expanding. The exposure of ticks to new hosts in a rapidly changing environment is likely to further increase the prevalence and diversity of tick ...

Full-genome characterisation of Orungo, Lebombo and Changuinola viruses provides evidence for co-evolution of orbiviruses with their arthropod vectors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The complete genomes of Orungo virus (ORUV), Lebombo virus (LEBV) and Changuinola virus (CGLV) were sequenced, confirming that they each encode 11 distinct proteins (VP1-VP7 and NS1-NS4).

Site‐Specific Protein Bioconjugation Through Cellular Incorporation of Noncanonical Amino Acids

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Genetic code expansion (GCE) enables site‐specific installation of noncanonical amino acids containing bioorthogonal conjugation handles, allowing precise, homogeneous protein modification. This review examines the principles of orthogonal translation, surveys the chemistries available for chemoselective labeling, and highlights emerging multi‐site ...

Extensive diversity of RNA viruses in ticks revealed by metagenomics in northeastern China.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
BackgroundTicks act as important vectors of infectious agents, and several emerging tick-borne viruses have recently been identified to be associated with human diseases in northeastern China.
