However, evaluating which newly discovered viruses pose sufficient risk of infecting humans to merit detailed laboratory characterization and surveillance remains largely speculative. Machine learning algorithms have been developed to address this imbalance by ranking the relative likelihood of human infection based on viral genome sequences, but are not yet routinely Citation: Bergner, L.M.; Mollentze, applied to viruses at the time of their discovery. Here, we characterized viral genomes detected N.; Orton, R.J.; Tello, C.; Broos, A.; through metagenomic sequencing of feces and saliva from common vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) Biek, R.; Streicker, D.G. and used these data as a case study in evaluating zoonotic potential using molecular sequencing Characterizing and Evaluating the data.

    COMPLETE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER VIRUS INACTIVATION DURING LYSIS IN THE FILMARRAY BIOTHREAT-E ASSAY DEMONSTRATES THE BIOSAFETY OF THIS TEST.

Peyrefitte (3) (1) bioMérieux, Marcy l’Etoile, France, (2) Fondation Mérieux, France (3) Unité de Virologie, Institut de recherche biomédicale des armées, Brétigny sur Orge, France Background : Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) are a group of illnesses caused by mainly five families of viruses namely Arenaviridae, Filoviridae , Bunyaviridae (Orthonairovirus genus ), Flaviviruses and Paramyxovirus (Henipavirus genus). The filovirus species known to cause disease in humans, Ebola virus (Zaire Ebolavirus), Sudan virus (Sudan Ebolavirus), Tai Forest virus (Tai Forest Ebolavirus), Bundibugyo virus (Bundibugyo Ebolavirus), and Marburg virus are restricted to Central Africa for 35 years, and spread to Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone in early 2014. Lassa fever is responsible for disease outbreaks across West Africa and in Southern Africa in 2008, with the identification of novel world arenavirus (Lujo virus). Henipavirus spread South Asia to Australia. CCHFv spread asia to south europa. They are transmitted from host reservoir by direct contacts or through vectors such as ticks bits. Working with VHF viruses, need a Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory, however during epidemics such observed with Ebola virus in 2014, the need to diagnose rapidly the patients raised the necessity to develop local laboratories These viruses represents a threat to healthcare workers and researches who manage infected diagnostic samples in laboratories. Aim : 1 Inactivation step An FilmArray Bio Thereat-E assay for detection of Hemorrhagic fever viruse Interfering substance HF virus + FA Lysis Buffer such as Ebola virus was developed to respond to Hemorrhagic fever virus 106 Ebola virus Whole blood + outbreak.

Barrett, ADT. (2015) Exp Rev Vaccines. 1-14. 2 Flavivirus E protein epitopes • Studies with human and mouse polyclonal sera show extensive serologic cross-reactivities between flaviviruses in terms of physical (ELISA) and biological (HAI and neutralization) assays • Studies with mouse, non-human primate, and human monoclonal antibodies show essentially the same result that all flaviviruses studied to date have a range of E protein epitopes ranging in flavivirus cross-reactive (e.g., mab 4G2 or 6B6C-1), to flavivirus intermediate (e.g., mab 1B7), to serocomplex specific (e.g., DENV-1 to DENV-4; mab MDVP-55A), to flavivirus species specific (e.g., mab 3H5 that is DENV-2 specific). Strain specific epitopes are rare. • Flavivirus infection induces a range of antibodies, including those that recognize multiple flaviviruses. A second, but different, flavivirus infection potentiates induction of flavivirus cross-reactive antibodies. • Most epitopes are “conformational” or “quaternary”. Very few epitopes are linear. Very few epitopes appear to elicit high titer neutralizing antibodies.

Westaway,1 Alexander A. Khromykh, and Jason M. Mackenzie Sir Albert Sakzewski Virus Research Centre, Royal Children’s Hospital, Herston, Brisbane, Queensland 4029 Australia Received November 30, 1998; returned to author for revision January 20, 1999; accepted March 2, 1999 Incorporation of bromouridine (BrU) into viral RNA in Kunjin virus-infected Vero cells treated with actinomycin D was monitored in situ by immunofluorescence using antibodies reactive with Br-RNA. The results showed unequivocally that nascent viral RNA was located focally in the same subcellular site as dsRNA, the putative template for flavivirus RNA synthesis. When cells were labeled with BrU for 15 min, the estimated cycle period for RNA synthesis, the nascent Br-RNA was not digested in permeabilized cells by RNase A under high-salt conditions, in accord with our original model of flavivirus RNA synthesis (Chu, P. W. G., and Westaway, E. G., Virology 140, 68–79, 1985). The model assumes that there is on average only one nascent strand per template, which remains bound until displaced during the next cycle of RNA synthesis. The replicase complex located by BrU incorporation in the identified foci was stable, remaining active in incorporating BrU or [32P]orthophosphate in viral RNA after complete inhibition of protein synthesis in cycloheximide-treated cells.

  • Nipah Virus (Niv)
    Nipah Virus (NiV) Nipah virus (NiV) is a member of the family Paramyxoviridae, genus Henipavirus. NiV was initially isolated and identified in 1999 during an outbreak of encephalitis and respiratory illness among pig farmers and people with close contact with pigs in Malaysia and Singapore. Its name originated from Sungai Nipah, a village in the Malaysian Peninsula where pig farmers became ill with encephalitis. Given the relatedness of NiV to Hendra virus, bat species were quickly singled out for investigation and flying foxes of the genus Pteropus were subsequently identified as the reservoir for NiV (Distribution Map). In the 1999 outbreak, Nipah virus caused a relatively mild disease in pigs, but nearly 300 human cases with over 100 deaths were reported. In order to stop the outbreak, more than a million pigs were euthanized, causing tremendous trade loss for Malaysia. Since this outbreak, no subsequent cases (in neither swine nor human) have been reported in either Malaysia or Singapore. In 2001, NiV was again identified as the causative agent in an outbreak of human disease occurring in Bangladesh. Genetic sequencing confirmed this virus as Nipah virus, but a strain different from the one identified in 1999. In the same year, another outbreak was identified retrospectively in Siliguri, India with reports of person-to-person transmission in hospital settings (nosocomial transmission). Unlike the Malaysian NiV outbreak, outbreaks occur almost annually in Bangladesh and have been reported several times in India. Transmission Transmission of Nipah virus to humans may occur after direct contact with infected bats, infected pigs, or from other NiV infected people.

  • A Look Into Bunyavirales Genomes: Functions of Non-Structural (NS) Proteins

While diverse, four of the families (Peribunyaviridae, Nairoviridae, Hantaviridae, and Phenuiviridae) contain known human pathogens and share a similar tri-segmented, negative-sense RNA genomic organization. In addition to the nucleoprotein and envelope glycoproteins encoded by the small and medium segments, respectively, many of the viruses in these families also encode for non-structural (NS) NSs and NSm proteins. The NSs of Phenuiviridae is the most extensively studied as a host interferon antagonist, functioning through a variety of mechanisms seen throughout the other three families. In addition, functions impacting cellular apoptosis, chromatin organization, and transcrip- tional activities, to name a few, are possessed by NSs across the families. Peribunyaviridae, Nairoviridae, and Phenuiviridae also encode an NSm, although less extensively studied than NSs, that has roles in antagonizing immune responses, promoting viral assembly and infectivity, and even maintenance of infection in host mosquito vectors. Overall, the similar and divergent roles of NS proteins of these Citation: Leventhal, S.S.; Wilson, D.; human pathogenic Bunyavirales are of particular interest in understanding disease progression, viral Feldmann, H.; Hawman, D.W.
