Novel Viruses in Mosquitoes from Brazilian Pantanal

Viruses, 2019
Viruses are ubiquitous and diverse microorganisms arising as a result of interactions within their vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Here we report the presence of different viruses in the salivary glands of 1657 mosquitoes classified over 28 culicinae ...

A Novel Protein NLRP12‐119aa that Prevents Rhabdovirus Replication by Disrupting the RNP Complex Formation

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, March 27, 2025.
The NLRP12‐119aa protein exerts its antiviral effect by two distinct mechanisms. First, it competes with the N protein of rhabdoviruses for binding to the viral leRNA, thereby preventing the formation of the RNP complex. Second, NLRP12‐119aa directly interacts with the rhabdovirus N protein, destabilizing it and promoting its degradation, which ...

Vector‐borne diseases

EFSA Journal, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2017., 2017
Abstract After a request from the European Commission, EFSA's Panel on Animal Health and Welfare summarised the main characteristics of 36 vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) in 36 Disease Profiles. The risk of introduction in the EU through movement of livestock or pets was assessed for each of the 36 VBDs individually, using a semiquantitative Method to ...

Using Vesicular Stomatitis Virus as a Platform for Directed Protease Evolution

Current Protocols, Volume 4, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Antiviral drugs are essential medications to save the lives of infected people. However, they are under constant threat to become ineffective as viruses evolve quickly. Studying the development of resistance is therefore paramount to understand the impact of mutations on pharmacological treatment and to make informed decisions.

Predicted 3D Model of the Rabies Virus Glycoprotein Trimer

BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The RABVG ectodomain is a homotrimer, and trimers are often called spikes. They are responsible for the attachment of the virus through the interaction with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), and the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR). This makes them relevant in viral pathogenesis.

Rhabdovirus matrix protein structures reveal a novel mode of self-association.

PLoS Pathogens, 2008
The matrix (M) proteins of rhabdoviruses are multifunctional proteins essential for virus maturation and budding that also regulate the expression of viral and host proteins. We have solved the structures of M from the vesicular stomatitis virus serotype

A cross‐sectional study on phlebotomine sand flies in relation to disease transmission in the Republic of Kosovo

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 573-585, December 2024.
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 ...

Virus Infections on Prion Diseased Mice Exacerbate Inflammatory Microglial Response

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
We investigated possible interaction between an arbovirus infection and the ME7 induced mice prion disease. C57BL/6, females, 6‐week‐old, were submitted to a bilateral intrahippocampal injection of ME7 prion strain (ME7) or normal brain homogenate (NBH). After injections, animals were organized into two groups: NBH (n = 26) and ME7 (n = 29).
