Identification and genetic characterization of an isolate of bovine adenovirus 7 from the United States, a putative member of a new species in the genus Atadenovirus
The bovine adenovirus 7 (BAdV-7) isolate SD18-74 was recovered from lung tissue of calves in South Dakota. The 30,043-nucleotide (nt) genome has the...

An Overview of the Cell Biology and Genetic Barriers to Virus Infections with Implications in Cell Line Development for Virotherapy
Viruses can be engineered for oncolysis, gene therapy, or vaccines. Oncolytic viruses and viral vector for cell and gene therapies are promising... -
Observation of Bacteriophage Ultrastructure by Cryo-Electron Microscopy
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is an ideal method to observe and determine the structure of bacteriophages. From early studies by negative... -
Human Coronavirus NL63 Among Other Respiratory Viruses in Clinical Specimens of Egyptian Children and Raw Sewage Samples
The objective of this study was to investigate human coronavirus NL63 (HCoV-NL63) prevalence among the other respiratory viruses such as...

Adenovirus Vectors
Infectious diseases are the prime cause of morbidity and mortality in animals leading to heavy economic losses to the livestock/poultry industry. One... -
SARS-CoV-2 vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 infection of human cell lines reveals low levels of viral backbone gene transcription alongside very high levels of SARS-CoV-2 S glycoprotein gene transcription
BackgroundChAdOx1 nCoV-19 is a recombinant adenovirus vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 that has passed phase III clinical trials and is now in use across...

Oncolytic Viruses and Viral Gene Therapy Vectors: Principles of Safety
With the emergence of genetic engineering, a new era of viral safety was introduced. Apart from the means to attenuate classical viral vaccines, new... -
Small-size recombinant adenoviral hexon protein fragments for the production of virus-type specific antibodies
BackgroundAdenoviruses are common pathogens infecting animals and humans. They are classified based on serology, or genome sequence information....
