Group 2 Vaccinia Virus, Brazil

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
In 2011, vaccinia virus caused an outbreak of bovine vaccinia, affecting dairy cattle and dairy workers in Brazil. Genetic and phenotypic analyses identified this isolate as distinct from others recently identified, thereby reinforcing the hypothesis ...

Temporal expression classes and functions of vaccinia virus and mpox (monkeypox) virus genes [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Poxviruses comprise pathogens that are highly pathogenic to humans and animals, causing diseases such as smallpox and mpox (formerly monkeypox). The family also contains members developed as vaccine vectors and oncolytic agents to fight other diseases ...

La-related protein 4 is enriched in vaccinia virus factories and is required for efficient viral replication in primary human fibroblasts

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
In addition to the 3′-poly(A) tail, vaccinia virus mRNAs synthesized after viral DNA replication (post-replicative mRNAs) possess a 5′-poly(A) leader that confers a translational advantage in virally infected cells.

Vaccinia virus-based vector against infectious diseases and tumors

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
Vaccinia virus was used to prevent smallpox. After the World Health Organization declared smallpox extinct, vaccinia virus has been explored for the development of vaccines against a variety of infectious diseases.

Attenuation of Vaccinia Virus [PDF]

open access: yesActa Naturae, 2015
Since 1980, in the post-smallpox vaccination era the human population has become increasingly susceptible compared to a generation ago to not only the variola (smallpox) virus, but also other zoonotic orthopoxviruses. The need for safer vaccines against orthopoxviruses is even greater now.

Fluorescent Tagged Vaccinia Virus Genome Allows Rapid and Efficient Measurement of Oncolytic Potential and Discovery of Oncolytic Modulators

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
As a live biologic agent, oncolytic vaccinia virus has the ability to target and selectively amplify at tumor sites. We have previously reported that deletion of thymidine kinase and ribonucleotide reductase genes in vaccinia virus can increase the ...

Vaccinia E5 is a major inhibitor of the DNA sensor cGAS

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) is critical in host antiviral immunity. Vaccinia virus (VACV) is a large cytoplasmic DNA virus that belongs to the poxvirus family.

Application of poxvirus K3 ortholog as a positive selection marker for constructing recombinant vaccinia viruses with modified host range

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
Vaccinia virus is capable of replicating in a wide range of vertebrate animal cells. However, deletion of the two virus host range genes, E3L and K3L, would render replication of the virus abortive in all the cell types tested, except the cells with ...

Incomplete but infectious vaccinia virions are produced in the absence of oncolysis in feline SCCF1 cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Vaccinia virus is a large, enveloped virus of the poxvirus family. It has broad tropism and typically virus replication culminates in accumulation and lytic release of intracellular mature virus (IMV), the most abundant form of infectious virus, as well ...

An Update on the Known Host Range of the Brazilian Vaccinia Virus: An Outbreak in Buffalo Calves

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Even nearly forty years after the eradication of smallpox, members of the Poxviridae family continue to be the focus of an increasing number of studies.
