Evolution and Virulence of Influenza A Virus Protein PB1-F2
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017 PB1-F2 is an accessory protein of most human, avian, swine, equine, and canine influenza A viruses (IAVs). Although it is dispensable for virus replication and growth, it plays significant roles in pathogenesis by interfering with the host innate immune ...

Virulence of Japanese Encephalitis Virus Genotypes I and III, Taiwan
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017 The virulence of genotype I (GI) Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is under debate. We investigated differences in the virulence of GI and GIII JEV by calculating asymptomatic ratios based on serologic studies during GI- and GIII-JEV endemic periods. The

Dengue Virus Virulence and Transmission Determinants
, 2009 The mechanisms of dengue virus (DENV) pathogenesis are little understood because we have no models of disease; only humans develop symptoms (dengue fever, DF, or dengue hemorrhagic fever, DHF) and research has been limited to studies involving patients.

Virus satellites drive viral evolution and ecology [PDF]
, 2015 Virus satellites are widespread subcellular entities, present both in eukaryotic and in prokaryotic cells. Their modus vivendi involves parasitism of the life cycle of their inducing helper viruses, which assures their transmission to a new host. However,

Vaccinia virus protein C4 inhibits NF-κB activation and promotes virus virulence
Journal of General Virology, 2012 Vaccinia virus (VACV) strain Western Reserve protein C4 has been characterized and its function and contribution to virus virulence assessed. Bioinformatic analysis showed that C4 is conserved in six orthopoxvirus species and shares 43 % amino acid ...
