Borna disease virus [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, 2001
AbstractBorna disease virus (BDV) is unique amongst animal RNA viruses in its molecular biology and capacity to cause persistent, noncytolytic CNS‐infection in a wide variety of host species. Unlike other non‐segmented negative‐strand RNA animal viruses, BDV replicates in the nucleus of the host cell where splicing is employed for expression of a very ...
