Getah Virus in Review: An Emerging Zoonotic Arbovirus. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisGetah virus (GETV), a zoonotic virus, belongs to Togaviridae, Alphavirus. GETV leads to diarrhea in piglets and dysfunction of the reproductive system in sows, with pregnant sows potentially experiencing abortion, fetal death, or weak offspring, causing a severe impact on the livestock industry and resulting in economic losses.

Hepatitis E Virus ORF1 Polyprotein Harbors a Pocket-Like Cavity That Is Vital for Virus Replication and Represents a Novel Antiviral Target. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Within the hepatitis E virus (HEV) ORF1 polyprotein, the X domain interacts with viral RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), forming a functional “pocket‐like” cavity (PC) that is crucial for viral replication. Structure‐based screening, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays, and HEV model validation collectively identify saikosaponin D and ...

Intervirology, 1978 The family Togaviridae is described; it contains four genera--Alphavirus, Flavivirus, Pestivirus and Rubivirus--and additional members. The main characteristics of the family are as follows: single-stranded, linear RNA, molecular weight about 4 X 10(6). Virions have isometric nucleocapsids surrounded by a lipoprotein envelope containing host cell lipid

Understanding the Wolbachia-mediated inhibition of arboviruses in mosquitoes: progress and challenges [PDF]
, 2014 Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a considerable threat to human and animal health, yet effective control measures have proven difficult to implement, and novel means of controlling their replication in arthropod vectors, such as mosquitoes, are

The antiviral RNAi response in vector and non-vector cells against orthobunya viruses [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Vector arthropods control arbovirus replication and spread through antiviral innate immune responses including RNA interference (RNAi) pathways. Arbovirus infections have been shown to induce the exogenous small interfering RNA (siRNA) and

A novel mechanism underlying the innate immune response induction upon viral-dependent replication of host cell mRNA: A mistake of +sRNA viruses' replicases [PDF]
, 2017 Viruses are lifeless particles designed for setting virus-host interactome assuring a new generation of virions for dissemination. This interactome generates a pressure on host organisms evolving mechanisms to neutralize viral infection, which places the

Mayaro Virus in Wild Mammals, French Guiana
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 A serologic survey for Mayaro virus (Alphavirus, Togaviridae) in 28 wild nonflying forest mammal species in French Guiana showed a prevalence ranging from 0% to 52% and increasing with age.

Alphavirus-Induced Membrane Rearrangements during Replication, Assembly, and Budding
Pathogens, 2021 Alphaviruses are arthropod-borne viruses mainly transmitted by hematophagous insects that cause moderate to fatal disease in humans and other animals. Currently, there are no approved vaccines or antivirals to mitigate alphavirus infections.
