Ranavirus is a large nucleocytoplasmic DNA virus. Chinese giant salamander iridovirus (CGSIV) belongs to the ranavirus genus, and its replication involves a series of essential viral genes. Viral is a gene closely associated with viral replication. CGSIV-025L also encodes PCNA-like genes. We have described the function of CGSIV-025L in virus replication. The promoter of CGSIV-025L is activated during viral infection, and it is an early (E) gene that can be effectively transcribed after viral infection. CGSIV-025L overexpression promoted viral replication and viral DNA replication. siRNA interfered with CGSIV-025L expression and attenuated viral replication and viral DNA replication. The Δ025L-CGSIV strain with the deletion of CGSIV-025L could not replicate normally and could be rescued by the replenishment of 025L. CGSIV-025L was proven to be an essential gene for CGSIV by overexpression, interference, and deletion mutation experiments. CGSIV-025L was found to interact with CGSIV-062L by yeast two-hybrid, CoIP, and GST pulldown. Thus, the current study demonstrated that CGSIV-025L is an essential gene of CGSIV, which may be involved in viral infection by participating in viral DNA replication and interacting with replication-related proteins.

The pathogenic oomycete Pythium insidiosum causes a fatal infectious illness known as pythiosis, impacting humans and certain animals in numerous countries in the tropics and subtropics. Delayed diagnosis is a primary factor contributing to the heightened morbidity and mortality associated with the disease. Several new serodiagnostic methods have been developed to improve the identification of pythiosis.

Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is a highly infectious disease affecting cattle, leading to significant economic losses in many countries engaged in cattle production. From February 2022 to October 2022, a study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and associated risk factors of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) in the Sebeta subcity area of Sheger city, Ethiopia. The study utilized a semi-structured questionnaire to gather information on herd management practices from dairy farm owners.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs)-mediated communication by cancer cells contributes towards the pro-tumoral reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment. Viral infection has been observed to alter the biogenesis and cargo of EVs secreted from host cells in the context of infectious biology. However, the impact of oncolytic viruses on the cargo and function of EVs released by cancer cells remains unknown.
