Incidence of mud crab reovirus (MCRV) outbreak in polyculture ponds of Andhra Pradesh, south east coast of India.

J Invertebr Pathol

June 2024

M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation (MSSRF), 3rd Cross Road, Taramani Institutional Area, Chennai 600113, Tamil Nadu, India.

Reovirus designated as Mud crab reovirus (MCRV) is associated with the mass mortalities of mud crabs resulting in significant economic loss to crab and shrimp-mud crab polyculture farmers in the Nagayalanka, Krishna district, Andhra Pradesh. The 100 % chronic mass mortalities have been attributed to the outbreak of Mud crab reovirus (MCRV) in the polyculture farms. The moribund crabs showed autotomy, discoloration of carapace, loss of appetite, slow movement and loose gills.

Dengue virus (DENV) is a single-stranded (+)-sense RNA virus that infects humans and mosquitoes, posing a significant health risk in tropical and subtropical regions. Mature virions are composed of an icosahedral shell of envelope (E) and membrane (M) proteins circumscribing a lipid bilayer, which in turn contains a complex of the approximately 11 kb genomic RNA with capsid (C) proteins. Whereas the structure of the envelope is clearly defined, the structure of the packaged genome in complex with C proteins remains elusive.

The iconic W@Au icosahedral bare cluster reaches the favorable closed-shell superatomic electron configuration 1S 1P 1D, making it an 18-cluster electron (18-ce) superatom. Here, we pursue the evaluation of a ligand-protected counterpart based on the construction of a fully phosphine-protected [W@Au(dppm)] cluster strongly related to the characterized [Au(dppm)] homometallic counterpart. The later cluster has the same total number of valence electrons as the former but is considered an 8-ce superatom with 1S 1P configuration.

Virion structure of Leishmania RNA virus 1.

Virology

December 2022

Central European Institute of Technology, Masaryk University, Kamenice 753/5, Brno, 625 00, Czech Republic. Electronic address:

The presence of Leishmania RNA virus 1 (LRV1) enables Leishmania protozoan parasites to cause more severe disease than the virus-free strains. The structure of LRV1 virus-like particles has been determined previously, however, the structure of the LRV1 virion has not been characterized. Here we used cryo-electron microscopy and single-particle reconstruction to determine the structures of the LRV1 virion and empty particle isolated from Leishmania guyanensis to resolutions of 4.
