A variant of frog virus 3 (FV3) resistant to 200 micrograms/ml phosphonoacetate was isolated, and used to establish that the DNA polymerase induced in FV3-infected cells was virus coded. In addition, inhibitor studies showed that the FV3 polymerase is similar to eukaryotic polymerase alpha in its sensitivity to aphidicolin, and that resistance to phosphonoacetate does not confer cross-resistance to thymidine arabinoside or acycloguanosine.

Mandarin fish ranavirus (MRV) is a distinctive member among the genus of the family . The persistently covert infection of MRV was previously observed in a natural outbreak of MRV, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we show that mandarin fish peripheral B lymphocytes are implemented as viral reservoirs to maintain the persistent infection.

Iridoviruses are large cytoplasmic icosahedral viruses that contain dsDNA. Among them, mandarin fish ranavirus (MRV) and infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) are particularly notable due to their high contagiousness and pathogenicity. These viruses pose a significant threat to fish aquaculture, resulting in substantial annual economic losses for the fish farming industry.

Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a key connector protein in interferon (IFN) signaling, crucial for IFN induction during the activation of antiviral innate immunity. In mammals, ring finger protein 5 (RNF5) functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, mediating STING regulation through K150 ubiquitylation to prevent excessive IFN production. However, the mechanisms underlying RNF5's regulation of STING in teleost fish remain unknown.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers successfully created an immortal cell line (MSF) from the fin tissue of Largemouth bass, which can be cultured continuously for over 80 passages.
- The MSF cells, maintained at 28°C and confirmed to be free from mycoplasma contamination, are identified as epithelialoid cells with specific chromosome characteristics.
- This new cell line is highly susceptible to various viruses affecting Largemouth bass, making it a valuable tool for future studies on gene expression and viral mechanics.

Article Synopsis
- Fermentation of Astragalus with Lactobacillus plantarum and Bacillus coagulans enhances the release of beneficial components and breaks down large molecules, leading to improved health benefits.
- The study evaluated the effects of different concentrations of ALB (Astragalus + L. plantarum + B. coagulans) on largemouth bass over 28 days, revealing that the 0.5% ALB group (ALB0.5) had the best outcomes in terms of weight gain, enzyme activity, and overall gut health.
- Additionally, the ALB0.5 group demonstrated better resistance against infections and improved immune gene expression, suggesting that this specific fermentation product significantly boosts the health and
