1. {"_":"An study of tymovirus virocells.","i":["in silico"]}
1. 对芜菁黄花叶病毒属病毒细胞的研究PMID:日期:2026-10We used computational tools to study the tymoviral proteome. Past gene sequence comparisons had shown that tymovirus genomes encode five proteins already identified in other viruses; however, our AlphaFold3 modelling found, in addition to their five -helical and -sheet structures, five regions of 'intrinsically disordered protein' (IDP). Notably, one of these IDPs is the movement protein (MP), distinguishing it from the structured MPs of other plant viruses. The MP is the largest IDP having some features of structured proteins including genus-specific conserved motifs. All tymovirid methyltransferases (Mtases) have a novel structure that includes a membrane-targeting domain (MTD) at their C-termini. Modelling showed that polymers of 3 or 11 copies of the Mtase:MTD are favoured; the former form complexes with the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, whereas the latter form short rounded cylinders with an equatorial groove. The cylinders are similar in size to the necks of vesicles previously found in the outer chloroplast membranes of all tymovirus-infected plants. The DisLipPred program found that the outer groove of the polymeric cylinders was probably lipophilic and so able to associate stably with plasma membranes. The vesicles are probably the 'replication organelles' of tymoviruses and the cylinders possibly the 'replication organelle organizers'. Modelling also indicated that the tymovirus helicase may function as a tetramer and that the coat protein may form trimer intermediates for assembling the virions. Our study has revealed some of the complexity and three-dimensionality of the viral components of tymovirus virocells.

2. A naturally occurring feline leukaemia virus subgroup A variant exhibits broad mammalian cellular tropism and utilizes canine thiamine transporter 1.
2. 一种天然存在的猫白血病病毒A亚群变异株表现出广泛的哺乳动物细胞嗜性，并利用犬硫胺素转运蛋白1PMID:日期:2026-09Feline leukaemia virus subgroup A (FeLV-A) has generally been regarded as having a narrow, predominantly feline host range. Here, we characterize a naturally occurring FeLV-A isolate, strain F8701, that exhibits unexpectedly broad mammalian cell tropism. Using an infectious molecular clone of F8701, we show that F8701 infects canine cells efficiently and can utilize the canine orthologue of thiamine transporter 1, the canonical FeLV-A receptor. Compared with reference FeLV-A strains, F8701 displayed markedly higher infectivity in multiple non-feline cell lines, including canine and human cells. Sequence analysis of the envelope glycoprotein revealed that F8701 carries the previously described 83D/91D di-aspartic acid residue combination in variable region A, together with an additional K105N substitution whose functional contribution remains to be determined. Interference assays confirmed that F8701 belongs to FeLV subgroup A, indicating that broad cellular tropism can occur within a naturally occurring FeLV-A background. Although replication in cultured canine cells was observed, whether F8701 can establish productive infection or transmission in dogs remains unknown. These findings highlight the natural plasticity of the FeLV-A envelope and suggest that receptor compatibility can contribute to the expansion of mammalian cellular tropism, while additional host-level barriers are likely to determine cross-species infection .

3. {"_":"ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: 2026.","i":["Bacilladnaviridae"]}
3. {"_":"ICTV病毒分类学概况：2026年。","i":["杆状DNA病毒科"]}PMID:日期:2026-09is a family of viruses with single-stranded, circular DNA genomes that range from 3.4 to 6 kb and contain a short double-stranded region of 0.5-1 kb. The genome is replicated by the rolling-circle mechanism. Bacilladnavirids encode a jelly-roll capsid protein which forms non-enveloped icosahedral capsids with a =3 symmetry. All cultured bacilladnavirids infect diatoms, a group of unicellular algae (Stramenopiles), and cause lysis of the host cells. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the family , which is available at ictv.global/report/bacilladnaviridae.

4. {"_":"Cellular PrP deposition identified at the maternal-foetal interface of chronic wasting disease-infected cervids.","sup":["CWD"]}
4. 在慢性消耗性疾病感染的鹿科动物母胎界面发现了细胞型PrP沉积PMID:日期:2026-09Vertical transmission has been identified as a viable route of transmission in the spread of chronic wasting disease (CWD), yet demonstration of trafficking mechanism(s) at the maternal-foetal interface has been limited. Conventional assays, including immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western blot and ELISA, often fail to detect low concentrations of the aberrant prion protein (PrP). Contemporary amyloid conversion assays can detect low concentrations of prion seeding activity but lack the ability to localize prion seeds within specific cellular structures of tissues. In this study, we developed an enhanced immunohistochemical approach, as IHC uniquely enables cellular localization, to reveal prion deposition in maternal-foetal tissues from experimentally infected Reeves' muntjac. After confirming improved sensitivity of amplification-IHC (AMP-IHC) in lymphoid tissues, we applied the assay to placentomes and uterine samples, comparing the results to matched tissue sections assessed by conventional IHC. AMP-IHC consistently detected PrP deposition that was undetected by conventional IHC, including its presence within the uterine glandular epithelium and glandular lumen. These observations provide the first histological evidence depicting prion association with uterine glands - structures responsible for secreting vital nutrients during early pregnancy. The presence of PrP in these structures supports the hypothesis that the developing conceptus can be exposed to prions . Our findings expand upon earlier studies demonstrating vertical CWD transmission and highlight AMP-IHC as a valuable tool for identifying low-level prion accumulation in tissues where conventional IHC proves insufficient.

5. Langerhans cells as targets of rabies virus immune evasion.
PMID:日期:2026-09Rabies virus (RABV) is a neurotropic virus of the genus that causes a nearly always fatal encephalitis in humans once it reaches the central nervous system. Dog bites are a major transmission route of RABV, and following superficial skin exposure, RABV first encounters epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs), yet their role in early infection remains poorly understood. Here, we show that exposure of immature human epidermal LCs to RABV leads to RABV association with cells in the absence of productive viral replication. RABV-exposed LCs display reduced cytokine and type I IFN responses and lack induction of IFN-stimulated genes, indicating suppression of antiviral signalling pathways. Together, these findings suggest that RABV is efficiently taken up by immature LCs, which dampens the antiviral immune responses of LCs, potentially facilitating immune evasion at the skin entry site.

6. Amino acid homorepeats in tape measure proteins correlate with bacteriophage tail length.
6. 卷尺蛋白中的氨基酸同源重复序列与噬菌体尾长度相关PMID:日期:2026-09The tape measure protein (TMP) dictates the tail length of tailed bacteriophages. However, the sequence features that drive the process of length fine-tuning have not yet been described. Tandem repeats (TRs), stretches of aas organized as multiple adjacent copies of the same or very similar sequence motif, are contributors to TMP length variation. Homorepeats (polyX regions) are a specific type of TRs composed of stretches of identical aas, forming low-complexity regions that contribute to protein structural flexibility and dynamics. Here, we performed a large-scale analysis of polyX regions across 12 million phage proteins to test whether these homorepeats help explain the variable length of flexible phage tails. PolyX tracts were detected in 41% of all phage proteins and in 95.5% of TMPs, with polyA, polyG, polyS and polyT dominating the composition. Furthermore, the number of polyX tracts in TMPs scaled directly with protein length. About half of the TMPs have both polyX and TRs (23,469 out of 45,500 TMPs), but nearly half of the polyX-containing TMPs lacked any TRs (19,999 out of 43,468 TMPs), showing that polyX are independent features rather than by-products of larger repeats. Morphological comparisons showed that phages with long and flexible tails (Siphovirus morphotype) combine polyX and TRs, whereas shorter or contractile-tailed phages rely mostly on polyX. Last, the total aa content in polyX regions correlated significantly with experimentally measured tail lengths (²=0.811, =1.56×10⁴). Our results identify polyX tracts as an important and tunable component of TMPs that enable precise control of phage tail length.

7. Bovine mammary tissues are susceptible to infection by viruses bearing panzootic H5N1 influenza A virus glycoproteins.
7. 牛乳腺组织易受携带泛兽疫性H5N1甲型流感病毒糖蛋白的病毒感染PMID:日期:2026-09The emergence of the panzootic clade 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza in 2020 marked a major expansion in the host range of influenza A viruses (IAVs), raising concerns about further cross-species transmission events and zoonotic spillover. The introduction of 2.3.4.4b viruses into US dairy herds has resulted in widespread circulation, accompanied by reduced milk yield, mastitis and high viral loads in milk. Notably, virus circulation in dairy cattle represents a novel route for mammalian adaptation and transmission that has already led to more than 40 human cases in the USA since 2024. As haemagglutinin (HA) is the primary determinant of viral host range and tissue tropism, we investigated whether viruses containing the glycoproteins of avian H5N1 subclade 2.3.4.4b viruses could infect mammary tissue from Aberdeen Angus, Holstein Friesian and Limousin cattle. Using mammary gland explants, we inoculated tissues with attenuated reassortant viruses expressing the HA and neuraminidase (NA) of three 2.3.4.4b viruses that predated the emergence of H5N1 in the US cattle: A/chicken/England/053052/2021 (AIV07), A/chicken/Scotland/054477/2021 (AIV09) and A/chicken/England/085598/2022 (AIV48). Detection of viral NP antigen by immunohistochemistry in explants from both the teat and gland cistern for all three breeds following inoculation with AIV09 and AIV48 indicates that mammary tissue from each of the three tested cattle breeds is susceptible to infection by viruses bearing H5N1 glycoproteins. Lectin staining showed expression of both α2,3- and α2,6-linked sialic acids in the mammary tissue of all donors, indicating that all three breeds have the potential to support infection with both avian- and mammalian-adapted IAVs. Together, these findings demonstrate that the mammary glands from both beef and dairy cattle breeds are susceptible to infection with viruses bearing avian-origin H5N1 glycoproteins and suggest that bovine mammary tissue may provide an environment in which diverse IAVs could co-infect the same tissue. This possibility underscores the need for further investigation and the inclusion of both beef and dairy cattle in ongoing H5N1 surveillance and risk-assessment frameworks.

8. A two-step processing method is recommended to inactivate human sporadic M1 and V2 prions.
8. 建议采用两步处理方法灭活人类散发性M1和V2型朊病毒PMID:日期:2026-09Most human-acquired prion diseases result from infection with M1 or V2 prions from sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. To prevent transmission via surgical instruments, sterilization methods targeting these prions are essential. In this study, stainless steel wires coated with M1 or V2 prions were used to evaluate inactivation protocols. None of the individual treatments - autoclaving, SDS or NaOH - eliminated infectivity except for autoclaving against V2 prions. Autoclaving at 134 °C revealed distinct thermal stability between M1 and V2, with M1 exhibiting greater thermal stability. Importantly, combining methods, which we herein called two-step processing methods, achieved practical inactivation: SDS treatment followed by autoclaving at 121 °C was highly effective. Commercial alkaline detergents also proved effective against M1 prion under a combination of high pH and temperature. The inability to detect infection in our model mice using our assay system demonstrates that the infectivity titre decreased to 10⁻⁸ in M1 and 10⁻⁷ in V2. These findings indicate that synergistic approaches can achieve prion inactivation under practical conditions, supporting the need for revised sterilization protocols to prevent iatrogenic transmission.

9. Optogenetic and temperature-dependent modulation of vesicular stomatitis virus polymerase activity by an intramolecular dimerizer.
9. 通过分子内二聚化剂对水疱性口炎病毒聚合酶活性进行光遗传学和温度依赖性调控PMID:日期:2026-09Optogenetic dimerization modules are widely used to regulate protein function, yet their behaviour within folded enzymes remains incompletely understood. Here, we engineered vesicular stomatitis virus by inserting an intramolecularly tethered light-inducible dimerizer into the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase [large (L) protein], enabling assessment of its effects on early viral transcription and viral replication. Blue light illumination enhanced viral replication, but reduced temperature produced a similar increase in viral replication even in the absence of light. In addition, a thermally stabilized dimerizer variant supported robust replication under dark conditions. These observations suggest that early viral transcription and viral replication are influenced by the structural and biophysical properties of the inserted dimerizer and their temperature dependence, rather than by light alone. Structural modelling suggested that permissive insertion sites are located within or adjacent to regions with low predicted Local Distance Difference Test (pLDDT) scores, whereas non-permissive insertions showed greater predicted local structural deviations, particularly in the capping domain. Although these analyses are based on predicted structures, the observed structural differences are consistent with the functional differences among insertion sites. Together, our results show that intramolecular optogenetic modules enable light- and temperature-dependent modulation of early viral transcription and replication. While the structural analyses are based on predicted models, they provide a useful framework for identifying permissive insertion sites and generate testable hypotheses regarding how the structural and biophysical properties of the inserted dimerizer may influence polymerase function.

10. {"_":"Genomic characterization of Lao strains reveals host-associated clustering in Southeast Asian bats.","i":["Mobatvirus"]}
10. {"_":"老挝毒株的基因组特征揭示了东南亚蝙蝠中与宿主相关的聚类。","i":["Mobatvirus"]}PMID:日期:2026-09While members of the genus are well-established human pathogens, the zoonotic potential of bat-associated hantavirids, particularly those within the genus , remains largely unresolved. To investigate the genetic diversity of these lineages in Southeast Asia, we conducted an expanded surveillance programme in Lao PDR from May 2023 to October 2025 in bat populations and wild animals from local wet markets. Using molecular screening and deep sequencing to characterize hantavirids from bat populations and wild animals from local wet markets, we identified 20 positive samples across four bat species, recovering coding-complete genomes for multiple novel variants. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that these viruses clustered within , resolving into two major subclades. The first subclade clustered with Quezon and Robina viruses found in fruit-eating bats. The second subclade further split into two lineages corresponding to Ðakrông and Xuân Sơn viruses, which are associated with trident and leaf-nosed bats, respectively. Despite the strong host association observed, the detection of these viruses in a wet market highlights this setting as a potential human exposure interface. These findings significantly expand the known diversity of mobatviruses in Laos and highlight the urgent need for serological surveillance in at-risk human populations to assess the potential for spillover.
