Semliki Forest virus alphaviruses

Alphaviruses, such as Sindbis virus and Semliki Forest virus, are a group of mosquito-borne, enveloped RNA viruses that can cause encephalitis, fever, arthritis and rashes in mammals. These viruses have two protein shells—an outer glycoprotein layer and an inner core— which are separated by a lipid bilayer, a membrane. Studies by cryoelectron microscopy have shown that... [Pg.340]

Most of the molecular biology of alphaviruses has been determined using a continuous baby hamster kidney (BHK) cell line or primary chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells infected with either Sindbis (SIN) virus or Semliki Forest (SF) virus. Alphavirus-cell in-... [Pg.467]
