Ecological and evolutionary perspectives on tick-borne pathogen co-infections

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2021
Tick-borne pathogen co-infections are common in nature. Co-infecting pathogens interact with each other and the tick microbiome, which influences individual pathogen fitness, and ultimately shapes virulence, infectivity, and transmission. In this review,

Phylogenetic Analysis of Lednice Orthobunyavirus

Microorganisms, 2019
Lednice virus (LEDV) has been detected in Culex modestus mosquitoes in several European countries within the last six decades. In this study, phylogenetic analyses of the complete genome segments confirm that LEDV belongs to the Turlock orthobunyavirus ...

Mosquito biodiversity and mosquito-borne viruses in the United Arab Emirates

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background In the last 50 years, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has experienced rapid population growth and urbanization. Urbanization is known to influence biodiversity, and there appears to be a link between the emergence of arboviruses and urban ...

Usutu virus, Austria and Hungary, 2010–2016Usutu virus, Austria and Hungary, 2010–2016

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2017
Usutu virus (USUV, Flaviviridae) was first reported in Europe in Austria in 2001, where it caused wild bird (mainly blackbird) mortality until 2005. Since 2006 no further USUV cases were diagnosed in the country.

Modeling preferential attraction to infected hosts in vector-borne diseases

Frontiers in Public Health, 2023
Vector-borne infectious diseases cause more than 700,000 deaths a year and represent an increasing threat to public health worldwide. Strategies to mitigate the spread of vector-borne diseases can benefit from a thorough understanding of all mechanisms that contribute to viral propagation in human.

Mathematical modeling in perspective of vector-borne viral infections: a review

Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2022
AbstractBackgroundViral diseases are highly widespread infections caused by viruses. These viruses are passing from one human to other humans through a certain medium. The medium might be mosquito, animal, reservoir and food, etc. Here, the population of both human and mosquito vectors are important.Main body of the abstractThe main objectives are here

Current Status of Vector-Borne Diseases in Croatia: Challenges and Future Prospects

Life, 2023
Different vector-borne pathogens are present or have (re-)emerged in Croatia. Flaviviruses tick-borne encephalitis (TBEV), West Nile (WNV), and Usutu (USUV) are widely distributed in continental regions, while Toscana virus (TOSV) and sandfly fever ...

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...
