Noroviruses

Norovirus is a genus of the Caliciviridae family, named for the cup-shaped depressions visible in the capsid by electron microscopy (Fauquet et ah,... [Pg.2]

The human caliciviruses, norovirus (NoV) and sapovirus, have also been described as small round structured viruses, for their 27-30 nm capsids. The NoV capsid consists of 180 copies of the VPl major capsid protein packed as an icosahedron (Prasad et ah, 1999) and the VP2 minor capsid protein, which may contribute to stability (Bertolotti-Ciarlet et al., 2002). The S domain of VPl forms the inner shell of the capsid, while the P domain protrudes from the capsid surface and contributes to binding the histoblood group antigen receptor (Cao et ah, 2007) and antigenicity (Donaldson et ah, 2008 Lindesmith et ah, 2010). [Pg.2]

NoV are readily transferred from hands to fomites and vice versa (Bidawid et al., 2004 D Souza et al., 2006). The pronoimced environmental stability of NoV particles also contributes to the spread of outbreaks from point sources of surface contamination. All stability studies have made use of surrogate organisms to model NoV response to conditions, since the human virus is not easily grown in cell culture (Duizer et al., 2004b Straub et al., 2007). The murine norovirus (MNV) and the feline calicivirus (FCV) have both been used, with the mouse virus providing more... [Pg.10]
