Biochemistry textbooks describe eukaryotic mRNAs as monocistronic. However, increasing evidence reveals the widespread presence and translation of upstream open reading frames preceding the "main" ORF. DNA and RNA viruses infecting eukaryotes often produce polycistronic mRNAs and viruses have evolved multiple ways of manipulating the host's translation machinery.

Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)/p65, a vital signaling molecule in the NF-κB pathway, participates in diverse physiological functions and host-virus interactions. However, the involvement of NF-κB/p65 in fish virus infection remains poorly understood. In this study, we explored the role of the p65 in virus infection and its impact on IL-18 regulation in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides).

Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) are a key interface between virus and host, and these interactions are important to both viral reprogramming of the host and to host restriction of viral infection. In particular, viral-host PPI networks can be used to further our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of tissue specificity, host range, and virulence. At higher scales, viral-host PPI screening could also be used to screen for small-molecule antivirals that interfere with essential viral-host interactions, or to explore how the PPI networks between interacting viral and host genomes co-evolve.

Tulip mild mottle mosaic disease, caused by tulip mild mottle mosaic virus (TMMMV, species Ophiovirus tulipae), was first reported in Japan in 1979. TMMMV has a negative-sense ssRNA genome and is closely related to ophioviruses such as Mirafiori lettuce big vein virus (MLBVV, Ophiovirus mirafioriense). However, its complete nucleotide sequence has not yet been reported.

Orf is a parapoxvirus endemically found in sheep and goats. Orf can be transmitted to humans in close contact with infected animals, causing a self-limited viral skin infection known as ecythyma contagiosum. The diagnosis can be made clinically and treatment is usually conservative; however, unfamiliarity with orf may lead to an extended work-up.
