  2. 1. Ljungan Virus Replication in Cell Culture

    Author : Jens-Ola Ekström; Kjell Edman; Glyn Stanway; Högskolan i Kalmar; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ljungan virus; picornavirus; parechovirus; 5 - RACE; 5 -end; infectious cDNA clone; real time PCR; virus purification; virion stability; disinfection; aphthovirus-like 2A; Virology; Virologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Abstract : Ljungan virus (LV) is a recently identified picornavirus of the genus Parechovirus. LV has been isolated from voles trapped in Sweden and also in the United States. LV infected small rodents may suffer from diabetes type 1 and type 2 like symptoms, myocarditis and encephalitis. READ MORE

  4. 2. Infectious Pancreatic NEcrosis Virus - Immunogenicity, Virion Integrity and Virus/Cell Interaction

    Author : Helena Fridholm; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbiology; Virology; IPNV;

    Abstract : Viruses are ubiquitous in all environments where life is present, also in aquatic environments. The fish-pathogenic virus, Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), has generally been studied because it causes high mortality amongst hatchery-reared salmonids in aqua culture facilities around the world.

  5. 3. Influenza Neuraminidase : Novel mechanisms of influenza NA that enable adaptation and promote diversification

    Author : Hao Wang; Robert Daniels; Colin Russell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Influenza; IAV; neuraminidase; transmembrane domain; the central Ca2 binding site; heterotetrameric formation; viral incorporation; evolution; adaptation; diversification; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are one of the most common human respiratory pathogens and are largely responsible for the seasonal influenza epidemics that cause mild to severe disease. The two IAV glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA or H) and neuraminidase (NA or N), serve as the major surface antigens and also are the main determinants of infectivity, pathogenicity and transmissibility.

  6. 4. Influenza Neuraminidase : Conserved features of a rapidly mutating virus

    Author : Henrik Östbye; Pia Ädelroth; Anice Lowen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; influenza; virology; neuraminidase; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Influenza A viruses (IAVs) of the H1N1 and H3N2 serotypes are the major cause of seasonal influenza epidemics. IAVs are labeled based on the antigenic properties of the two surface glycoproteins and main antigens: hemagglutinin (HA/H) and neuraminidase (NA/N). READ MORE
