Distribution and conservation of Banana Streak Virus (BSV) within banana Musa balbisiana genome: what impact on host and virus evolution ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The nuclear genome of several plants isinvaded by numerous viral sequences. These integrations correspond to accidental events mainly resulting from illegitimate recombination of DNA viruses belonging to the family Caulimoviridae with plant DNA whereas ...

The Prevalence of Viral Pathogens among Bats in Kazakhstan

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Bats carry thousands of viruses from 28 different families. To determine the presence of various pathogens in bat populations in Kazakhstan, 1149 samples (393 oropharyngeal swabs, 349 brain samples, 407 guano) were collected.

Unexpected interfarm transmission dynamics during a highly pathogenic avian influenza epidemic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Next-generation sequencing technology is now being increasingly applied to study the within- and between-host population dynamics of viruses. However, information on avian influenza virus evolution and transmission during a naturally occurring epidemic ...

Duck gut viral metagenome analysis captures snapshot of viral diversity [PDF]

open access: yesGut Pathogens, 2016
Ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) an economically important waterfowl for meat, eggs and feathers; is also a natural reservoir for influenza A viruses. The emergence of novel viruses is attributed to the status of co-existence of multiple types and subtypes of viruses in the reservoir hosts.

Substantial viral diversity in bats and rodents from East Africa: insights into evolution, recombination, and cocirculation

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background Zoonotic viruses cause substantial public health and socioeconomic problems worldwide. Understanding how viruses evolve and spread within and among wildlife species is a critical step when aiming for proactive identification of viral threats ...

The influence of bat ecology on viral diversity and reservoir status

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Repeated emergence of zoonotic viruses from bat reservoirs into human populations demands predictive approaches to preemptively identify virus‐carrying bat species.

Diverse viral proteases activate the NLRP1 inflammasome [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The NLRP1 inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that is a potent activator of inflammation. Mouse NLRP1B can be activated through proteolytic cleavage by the bacterial Lethal Toxin (LeTx) protease, resulting in degradation of the N-terminal domains of NLRP1B and liberation of the bioactive C-terminal domain, which includes the caspase activation and ...
