African Swine Fever Virus, Siberia, Russia, 2017
نویسندگان
چکیده
African swine fever (ASF) is arguably the most dangerous and emerging swine disease worldwide. ASF is a serious problem for the swine industry. The first case of ASF in Russia was reported in 2007. We report an outbreak of ASF in Siberia, Russia, in 2017.

Genome Sequence of an Unusual Reassortant H1N1 Swine Influenza Virus Isolated from a Pig in Russia, 2016
We report here the genome sequence of the influenza A virus strain A/swine/Siberia/1sw/2016, isolated from a swine in Russia. On the basis of sequence analysis, A/swine/Siberia/1sw/2016 is characterized by unusual surface glycoproteins phylogenetically distinct from those of swine A(H1N1)pdm09 influenza virus.
متن کاملUnraveling the Armor of a Killer: Evasion of Host Defenses by African Swine Fever Virus.
African swine fever is an acute hemorrhagic disease of pigs. Extensive recent spread in the Russian Federation and Eastern Europe has increased the risk to global pig production. The virus is a large DNA virus and is the only member of the Asfarviridae family. In pigs, the virus replicates predominantly in macrophages. We review how the virus overcomes the barriers to replication in the macroph...
متن کاملInvestigations of Pro- and Anti-Apoptotic Factors Affecting African Swine Fever Virus Replication and Pathogenesis
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large DNA virus that replicates predominantly in the cell cytoplasm and is the only member of the Asfarviridae family. The virus causes an acute haemorrhagic fever, African swine fever (ASF), in domestic pigs and wild boar resulting in the death of most infected animals. Apoptosis is induced at an early stage during virus entry or uncoating. However, ASFV e...
متن کاملAfrican Swine Fever Virus: A Review
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious viral disease of swine which causes high mortality, approaching 100%, in domestic pigs. ASF is caused by a large, double stranded DNA virus, ASF virus (ASFV), which replicates predominantly in the cytoplasm of macrophages and is the only member of the Asfarviridae family, genus Asfivirus. The natural hosts of this virus include wild suids and art...
متن کاملCharacterization of the African Swine Fever Virus Decapping Enzyme during Infection
African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection is characterized by a progressive decrease in cellular protein synthesis with a concomitant increase in viral protein synthesis, though the mechanism by which the virus achieves this is still unknown. Decrease of cellular mRNA is observed during ASFV infection, suggesting that inhibition of cellular proteins is due to an active mRNA degradation process...
