African horse sickness virus (AHSV) with a deletion of 77 amino acids in NS3/NS3a protein is not virulent and a safe promising AHS Disabled Infectious Single Animal (DISA) vaccine platform
(Elsevier, 2018)African horse sickness virus (AHSV) is a virus species in the genus Orbivirus of the family Reoviridae. Currently, nine serotypes have been defined showing limited cross neutralization. AHSV is transmitted by species of ... -
African horse sickness virus NS4 is a nucleocytoplasmic protein that localizes to PML nuclear bodies
(Microbiology Society, 2020)African horse sickness virus (AHSV) is the causative agent of the often fatal disease African horse sickness in equids. The non-structural protein NS4 is the only AHSV protein that localizes to the nucleus. Here we report ... -
Detection of African horse sickness virus in Culicoides imicola using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR)
(2016)African horse sickness (AHS) is an infectious, non-contagious arthropod-borne disease of equids. The disease is caused by the African horse sickness virus (AHSV), a member of the genus Orbivirus, of the Reoviridae family. ... -
Establishment of different plasmid only-based reverse genetics systems for the recovery of African horse sickness virus
(Elsevier, 2016)In an effort to simplify and expand the utility of African horse sickness virus (AHSV) reverse genetics, different plasmid-based reverse genetics systems were developed. Plasmids containing cDNAs corresponding to each of ... -
Occurrence of Culicoides species (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in the Khomas region of Namibia during the winter months
(Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale dell'Abruzzo e del Molise G. Caporale, 2012)Although African horse sickness (AHS) is considered to be endemic in Namibia, limited data on its Culicoides midge vector (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are available. The principal study objective was to determine the presence, ... -
Requirements and comparative analysis of reverse genetics for bluetongue virus (BTV) and African horse sickness virus (AHSV)
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background Bluetongue virus (BTV) and African horse sickness virus (AHSV) are distinct arthropod borne virus species in the genus Orbivirus (Reoviridae family), causing the notifiable diseases Bluetongue and African horse ...
