Marburg virus (MARV) and Ebola virus (EBOV) are acute infections with high case fatality rates. It is great significance for epidemic monitoring and prevention and control of infectious diseases by development of a rapid, specific and sensitive quantitative PCR method to detect two pathogens simultaneously.

Analysis of the multifunctionality of Marburg virus VP40
The Marburg virus (MARV) matrix protein, VP40, is a multifunctional protein that is essential for the assembly and release of viral particles, inhibition of the interferon response and viral transcription/replication. VP40 is assumed to be present as soluble monomers and membrane-bound higher-order oligomers.

Obtaining Recombinant Antigens for the Development of Serological Diagnosis of Marburg Fever
Aim. Production of recombinant viral antigens of the main immunodominant proteins: glycoprotein (GPΔMLD), nucleoprotein (NP) and matrix protein (VP40) of the Marburg virus, as well as the study of their antigenic and immunogenic properties.Materials and ...

Plasma membrane association facilitates conformational changes in the Marburg virus protein VP40 dimer [PDF]
Filovirus infections cause hemorrhagic fever in humans and non-human primates that often results in high fatality rates. The Marburg virus is a lipid-enveloped virus from the Filoviridae family and is closely related to the Ebola virus.

Background/Aims: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are presently the most promising treatment against Ebola virus disease (EVD), and cocktail of two or more antibodies likely confers protection through complementary mechanisms.

Data from: A systematic review and meta-analysis of seroprevalence surveys of ebolavirus infection [PDF]
The dataset contains findings and information from 51 seroprevelance studies performed from on samples collected from 1961 to 2016. These investigated 84 exposure-defined subgroups of subjects reported to have had no symptoms of EVD during the outbreak ...

Ebola Virus VP40 Modulates Cell Cycle and Biogenesis of Extracellular Vesicles [PDF]
Ebola virus (EBOV) mainly targets myeloid cells; however, extensive death of T cells is often observed in lethal infections. We have previously shown that EBOV VP40 in exosomes causes recipient immune cell death.Using VP40-producing clones, we analyzed donor cell cycle, extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis, and recipient immune cell death ...

Charakterisierung der Rolle des endosomalen Recycling-Systems für den intrazellulären Transport des Marburg Virus Glykoproteins [PDF]
Das Marburg Virus (MARV), das zur Familie der Filoviridae gezählt wird, ist ein Erreger schwerer Fieber mit Letalitätsraten von bis zu 90 %. Das Glykoprotein GP stellt das einzige Oberflächenprotein des MARV dar und daher ist sein korrekter Transport zu ...

Cheminformatics-Based Study Identifies Potential Ebola VP40 Inhibitors
The Ebola virus (EBOV) is still highly infectious and causes severe hemorrhagic fevers in primates. However, there are no regulatorily approved drugs against the Ebola virus disease (EVD). The highly virulent and lethal nature of EVD highlights the need to develop therapeutic agents.
