Variola virus immune evasion proteins

Microbes and Infection, 2003
Variola virus, the causative agent of smallpox, encodes approximately 200 proteins. Over 80 of these proteins are located in the terminal regions of the genome, where proteins associated with host immune evasion are encoded. To date, only two variola proteins have been characterized.

Gene homology between orf virus and smallpox variola virus

Virus Genes, 1996
About 47% identity was observed between the deduced amino acid sequences of a protein encoded by a gene of the parapoxvirus orf virus (OV) strain NZ2 and a 6 kDa protein of unknown function reported to be produced by an open reading frame expressed early after infection by the orthopoxvirus Western Reserve vaccinia virus (VAC); the open reading frame ...

Screening Studies with Variola Virus

1958
Abstract : An investigation was initiated to screen variola virus. The experimental data are concerned with methods of assaying the virus quantitatively, determining optimal conditions for culture growth, and the effect of various physical and chemical reagents on its viability.
