Assembly of Togaviridae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The Togaviridae are a family of 4 genera of enveloped RNA viruses with icosahedral nucleocapsids: Alphaviruses, Flaviviruses, Rubiviruses and Pestiviruses (Melnick, 1980). The Alpha- and Flaviviruses are arthropod-borne viruses which can replicate in both vertebrate and arthropod cells.

Molecular Screening of Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) for Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Pathogens, South Moravia, Czech Republic

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 95-106, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Black flies (Simuliidae) are globally distributed blood‐feeding arthropods and vectors of viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens to many animal species, including humans. We investigated the occurrence of selected vector‐borne pathogens in black flies in South Moravia, Czech Republic, and evaluated their possible role in the ...

Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...

Attenuation of Chikungunya Virus by a Single Amino Acid Substitution in the nsP1 Component of a Non-Structural Polyprotein

open access: yesViruses
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-transmitted alphavirus that, since its re-emergence in 2004, has become recognised as a major public health concern throughout many tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world.

Strategic Preparedness of Broad‐Spectrum Antivirals for Rapid Response Towards Next Pandemics

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
Nanoengineered broad‐spectrum antivirals (BSAs) represent a transformative approach to pandemic preparedness. Unlike virus‐specific drugs requiring separate development, BSAs act across multiple viral families through nanoengineering strategies that enhance solubility, bioavailability, and host‐targeted activity.

Development and evaluation of a duplex RT-qPCR assay for the detection and identification of Mayaro and chikungunya viruses

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is a mosquito-borne alphavirus that is widespread in the Amazon basin, where it co-circulates with the closely related chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Due to the limited surveillance and technical limitations of diagnostic assays (scarcity
