Structure determination of feline calicivirus virus-like particles in the context of a pseudo-octahedral arrangement. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The vesivirus feline calicivirus (FCV) is a positive strand RNA virus encapsidated by an icosahedral T=3 shell formed by the viral VP1 protein. Upon its expression in the insect cell - baculovirus system in the context of vaccine development, two types ...

Role of annexin A2 in cellular entry of rabbit vesivirus

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2009
The mechanisms of calicivirus attachment and internalization are not well understood, mainly due to the lack of a reliable cell-culture system for most of its members. In this study, rabbit vesivirus (RaV) virions were shown to bind annexin A2 (ANXA2) in a membrane protein fraction from HEK293T cells, using a virus overlay protein-binding assay and ...

Norovirus infection in immunocompromised hosts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Acute gastroenteritis caused by noroviruses often has a duration of 2–0 days and is characteristically self-limiting. In contrast, chronic infection caused by noroviruses in immunocompromised individuals can last from weeks to years, making clinical ...

Novel adenovirus detected in captive bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) suffering from self-limiting gastroenteritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND Adenoviruses are common pathogens in vertebrates, including humans. In marine mammals, adenovirus has been associated with fatal hepatitis in sea lions.

Inactivation of murine norovirus by chemical biocides on stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Human norovirus (NoV) causes more than 80% of nonbacterial gastroenteritis in Europe and the United States. NoV transmission via contaminated surfaces may be significant for the spread of viruses. Therefore, measures for prevention and control,

Human Norovirus prevalence in Africa:a review of studies from 1990 to 2013 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVES: To assess the contribution of Human Norovirus to diarrheal diseases in Africa.   METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of the PubMed and EMBASE databases for published articles of Human Norovirus in Africa between 1990 and 2013. Data were

Identification of Feline Interferon Regulatory Factor 1 as an Efficient Antiviral Factor against the Replication of Feline Calicivirus and Other Feline Viruses

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Interferons (IFNs) can inhibit most, if not all, viral infections by eliciting the transcription of hundreds of interferon‐stimulated genes (ISGs). Feline calicivirus (FCV) is a highly contagious pathogen of cats and a surrogate for Norwalk virus. Interferon efficiently inhibits the replication of FCV, but the mechanism of the antiviral activity is ...

First molecular detection and characterization of herpesvirus and poxvirus in a Pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus divergens) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND Herpesvirus and poxvirus can infect a wide range of species: herpesvirus genetic material has been detected and amplified in five species of the superfamily Pinnipedia; poxvirus genetic material, in eight species of Pinnipedia.

European molecular epidemiology and strain diversity of feline calicivirus

open access: yesVeterinary Record, Volume 178, Issue 5, Page 114-115, January 2016., 2016
Feline calicivirus (FCV) causes a variable syndrome of upper respiratory tract disease, mouth ulcers and lameness. A convenience‐based prospective sample of oropharyngeal swabs (n=426) was obtained from five countries (France, Germany, Greece, Portugal and the UK). The prevalence of FCV by virus isolation was 22.2 per cent. Multivariable analysis found

A universal protocol to generate consensus level genome sequences for foot-and-mouth disease virus and other positive-sense polyadenylated RNA viruses using the Illumina MiSeq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is revolutionizing molecular epidemiology by providing new approaches to undertake whole genome sequencing (WGS) in diagnostic settings for a variety of human and veterinary pathogens.
