| mx1 sensitivity: batken virus is an orthomyxovirus closely related to dhori virus. | batken virus, isolated from mosquitoes and ticks, was tentatively classified as a member of the family bunyaviridae. here we show that batken virus is inhibited by the interferon-induced mx1 protein of mice which selectively blocks the growth of orthomyxoviruses, including thogoto and dhori viruses. furthermore, we show that batken virus multiplication is characterized by accumulation of viral proteins in the nucleus and by budding of viral particles from the cell surface. serological cross-reac ... | 1997 | 9349464 |
| [genetic characterization of the batken virus (bknv) (orthomyxoviridae, thogotovirus) isolated from the ixodidae ticks hyalomma marginatum koch, 1844 and the mosquitoes aedes caspius pallas, 1771, as well as the culex hortensis ficalbi, 1889 in the central asia]. | the prototype strain leiv-k306 of the batken virus (bknv) was isolated from the ixodidae ticks hyalomma marginatum koch, 1844 collected from sheep near town batken (kirgizstan) in the april 1970. later, the bknv was isolated in kirgizstan from the mixed pool of the aedes caspius pallas, 1771 and culex hortensis ficalbi, 1889 mosquitoes. from the very beginning, the bknv was discussed to be very close to the dhori virus (dhov) (orthomyxoviridae, thogotovirus) isolated from the ixodidae ticks hyal ... | 2016 | 25069283 |
