| phylogeny and evolution of old world arenaviruses. | the intention of this study was to investigate the genomics, phylogeny and evolution of the old world arenaviruses based on sequence data representing the four viral genes. to achieve this aim, we sequenced the complete s and l rna segments of ippy virus (ippyv), mobala virus (mobv) and mopeia virus (mopv). full-length sequences of the np, gpc, z and l genes were used to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships and to compare resulting tree topologies. each of the five old world arenavirus species ... | 2006 | 16494913 |
| rt-pcr assay for detection of lassa virus and related old world arenaviruses targeting the l gene. | this study describes an rt-pcr assay targeting the l rna segment of arenaviruses. conserved regions were identified in the polymerase domain of the l gene on the basis of published sequences for lassa virus, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (lcmv), pichinde virus and tacaribe virus, as well as 15 novel sequences for lassa virus, lcmv, ippy virus, mobala virus and mopeia virus determined in this study. using these regions as target sites, a pcr assay for detection of all known old world arenavi ... | 2007 | 17905372 |
