Structure of the low pH conformation of Chandipura virus G reveals important features in the evolution of the vesiculovirus glycoprotein. [PDF]
Chandipura virus (CHAV), a member of the vesiculovirus genus, is an emerging human pathogen. As for other rhabdoviruses, CHAV entry into susceptible cells is mediated by its single envelope glycoprotein G which is both involved in receptor recognition ...

We provide the currently known sand fly distribution and species diversity in Kosovo, including a COI barcode inventory and distribution maps. Phlebotomus neglectus and Ph. perfiliewi were identified to be the predominant species and environmental analyses depicted two geographical groups of sand flies in Kosovo, with notable differences between the ...

Vesicular Stomatitis Virus as a Platform for Protease Activity Measurements
Abstract Protease inhibitors are among the most powerful antiviral drugs. They have been used successfully against viruses, such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2).

Insights into product and process related challenges of lentiviral vector bioprocessing
Abstract Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are used in advanced therapies to transduce recipient cells for long term gene expression for therapeutic benefit. The vector is commonly pseudotyped with alternative viral envelope proteins to improve tropism and is selected for enhanced functional titers.

Intramuscular DNA Vaccination of Juvenile Carp against Spring Viremia of Carp Virus Induces Full Protection and Establishes a Virus-Specific B and T Cell Response [PDF]
Although spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) can cause high mortalities in common carp, a commercial vaccine is not available for worldwide use. Here, we report a DNA vaccine based on the expression of the SVCV glycoprotein (G) which, when injected in ...

Abstract The capacity to remove viruses by Planova filters produced by Asahi Kasei, primarily by small virus‐retentive filters, were compiled from data in peer‐reviewed publications and, partly, publicly available data from presentations at conferences (Planova workshops).

Siah2- and LRSAM1-mediated K63-linked ubiquitination of snakehead vesiculovirus nucleoprotein facilitates viral replication. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Nucleoprotein (N) is well known for its function in the encapsidation of the genomic RNAs of negative-strand RNA viruses, which leads to the formation of ribonucleoproteins that serve as templates for viral transcription and replication.

Possibility and challenges of conversion of current virus species names to Linnaean binomials [PDF]
Botanical, mycological, zoological, and prokaryotic species names follow the Linnaean format, consisting of an italicized Latinized binomen with a capitalized genus name and a lower case species epithet (e.g., Homo sapiens). Virus species names, however,

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...
