| electron microscopy and antigenic studies of uncharacterized viruses. i. evidence suggesting the placement of viruses in families arenaviridae, paramyxoviridae, or poxviridae. | during approximately 35 years, investigators in various laboratories studying arbovirus ecology and epidemiology accumulated many virus isolates, more than 60 of which were not characterized or placed in taxa. by a combination of electron microscopic and antigenic studies we collected information sufficient to provisionally classify 60 isolates. electron microscopic observations suggest that 20 are members of the virus family bunyaviridae, 20 rhabdoviridae, 14 reoviridae, one togaviridae, one pa ... | 1989 | 2690775 |
| araguari virus, a new member of the family orthomyxoviridae: serologic, ultrastructural, and molecular characterization. | this paper reports the results of serologic, structural, biochemical, and genetic studies indicating that araguari virus, a previously unassigned viral agent, is a member of the family orthomyxoviridae and genus thogotovirus. araguari virus has six rna fragments; biologically, it shares several properties with other viruses in the family orthomyxoviridae. nucleotide sequencing of the rna segments 4 (glycoprotein) and 5 (nucleoprotein) of araguari virus aligned with the orthomyxoviruses, showing ... | 2005 | 16354811 |
