| muju virus, a novel hantavirus harboured by the arvicolid rodent myodes regulus in korea. | acute-phase sera from >5 % of cases of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome occurring annually in korea have been found to exhibit a fourfold or higher antibody titre to puumala virus (puuv) than to hantaan virus (htnv) by double-sandwich igm elisa, suggesting the existence of a puuv-related hantavirus. based on the phylogenetic relationships among arvicolid rodents, the royal vole (myodes regulus) was targeted as a likely reservoir host of hantavirus. using rt-pcr, a genetically distinct hant ... | 2007 | 17947538 |
| genetic analysis of hantaviruses carried by myodes and microtus rodents in buryatia. | hantavirus genome sequences were recovered from tissue samples of myodes rufocanus, microtus fortis and microtus oeconomus captured in the baikal area of buryatia, russian federation. genetic analysis of s- and m-segment sequences of buryatian hantavirus strains showed that myodes-associated strains belong to hokkaido virus (hokv) type while microtus-associated strains belong to vladivostok virus (vlav) type. on phylogenetic trees buryatian hokv strains were clustered together with m. rufocanus- ... | 2008 | 18190679 |
| whole-genome sequence of muju virus, an arvicolid rodent-borne hantavirus. | the complete genome sequence of muju virus was determined from lung tissue samples of three royal voles (myodes regulus) captured in gangwon province in the republic of korea. since few whole genome sequences of hantaviruses are available, this sequence may help to clarify the molecular phylogeny of arvicolid rodent-borne hantaviruses. | 2014 | 24578272 |
| muju virus, harbored by myodes regulus in korea, might represent a genetic variant of puumala virus, the prototype arvicolid rodent-borne hantavirus. | the genome of muju virus (mujv), identified originally in the royal vole (myodes regulus) in korea, was fully sequenced to ascertain its genetic and phylogenetic relationship with puumala virus (puuv), harbored by the bank vole (my. glareolus), and a puuv-like virus, named hokkaido virus (hokv), in the grey red-backed vole (my. rufocanus) in japan. whole genome sequence analysis of the 6544-nucleotide large (l), 3652-nucleotide medium (m) and 1831-nucleotide small (s) segments of mujv, as well a ... | 2014 | 24736214 |
| hokkaido genotype of puumala virus in the grey red-backed vole (myodes rufocanus) and northern red-backed vole (myodes rutilus) in siberia. | three species of myodes voles known to harbor hantaviruses include the bank vole (myodes glareolus), which serves as the reservoir host of puumala virus (puuv), the prototype arvicolid rodent-borne hantavirus causing hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (hfrs) in europe, and the grey red-backed vole (myodes rufocanus) and royal vole (myodes regulus) which carry two puuv-like hantaviruses, designated hokkaido virus (hokv) and muju virus (mujv), respectively. to ascertain the hantavirus harbored ... | 2015 | 26003760 |
