Blue box = ISGs that reduced virus production by more than 2-fold in wild type cells, but were not in IRF3 KO cells. The green box = ISGs that reduced virus production by more than 2-fold in both wild type and IRF3 KO cells. Relative primary replication and virus production levels of HCMV for the ISGs in the blue box (B) and for ISGs that reduced primary replication by more than 50% (C) were plotted.

TRIM25 knockdown does not inhibit ISG induction. Wild-type fibroblast cells were transfected with TRIM25 siRNA or negative control siRNA. 48 hours later, the cells were then infected with TB40E-GFP at an MOI of 3. Total RNA were harvested at 24 hours post infection and the RNA levels of (A) ISG20, (B) MDA5 and (C) RIG-I were determined by Quantitative RT-PCR analysis. The result demonstrates that ISG induction following HCMV infection were not inhibited by TRIM25 knockdown..

  • Trunkloads of Viruses
    COMMENTARY Trunkloads of Viruses Philip E. Pellett Department of Immunology and Microbiology, Wayne State University School of Medicine, Detroit, Michigan, USA Elephant populations are under intense pressure internationally from habitat destruction and poaching for ivory and meat. They also face pressure from infectious agents, including elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus 1 (EEHV1), which kills ϳ20% of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) born in zoos and causes disease in the wild. EEHV1 is one of at least six distinct EEHV in a phylogenetic lineage that appears to represent an ancient but newly recognized subfamily (the Deltaherpesvirinae) in the family Herpesviridae. lephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus 1 (EEHV1) causes a rap- the Herpesviridae (the current complete list of approved virus tax- Downloaded from Eidly progressing and usually fatal hemorrhagic disease that ons is available at http://ictvonline.org/).

  • Molecular Identification and Genetic Characterization of Cetacean Herpesviruses and Porpoise Morbillivirus
    MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION AND GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF CETACEAN HERPESVIRUSES AND PORPOISE MORBILLIVIRUS By KARA ANN SMOLAREK BENSON A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2005 Copyright 2005 by Kara Ann Smolarek Benson I dedicate this to my best friend and husband, Brock, who has always believed in me. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost I thank my mentor, Dr. Carlos Romero, who once told me that love is fleeting but herpes is forever. He welcomed me into his lab with very little experience and I have learned so much from him over the past few years. Without his excellent guidance, this project would not have been possible. I thank my parents, Dave and Judy Smolarek, for their continual love and support. They taught me the importance of hard work and a great education, and always believed that I would be successful in life. I would like to thank Dr. Tom Barrett for the wonderful opportunity to study porpoise morbillivirus in his laboratory at the Institute for Animal Health in England, and Dr. Romero for making the trip possible. I especially thank Dr. Ashley Banyard for helping me accomplish all the objectives of the project, and all the wonderful people at the IAH for making a Yankee feel right at home in the UK. I thank Alexa Bracht and Rebecca Woodruff who have been with me in Dr. Romero’s lab since the beginning. Their continuous friendship and encouragement have kept me sane even in the most hectic of times.

The virus is shed in feather dust and spread through inhalation. Vaccines are available to protect against the effects of MDV but not replication of the virus and subsequent contamination of the environment leading to flock exposure.
