Xinyang flavivirus is a novel tick-borne Orthoflavivirus

In this paper, we report the discovery of Xinyang flavivirus (XiFV), a novel virus isolated from Haemaphysalis flava ticks in China. Through phylogenetic analysis, we found that XiFV is closely related to other tick-only flaviviruses, such as Mpulungu flavivirus (MPFV) from Zambia and Ngoye virus (NGOV) from Senegal. This positions XiFV in a unique clade of orthoflaviviruses, a group that seems to infect only ticks, without any known vertebrate host

RNA structure conservation and molecular epidemiology of TBEV

In this paper, we study the molecular epidemiology and RNA structureome diversity of tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). Moreover, we propose a unified picture of pervasive non-coding RNA structure conservation across all known TBEV subtypes

Functional RNA structures in the 3'UTR of Mosquito-Borne Flaviviruses

The 3'UTR of Mosquito-Borne Flaviviruses (MBF) contain evolutionarily conserved functional elements, such as exoribonuclease-resistant RNAs (xrRNAs), dumbbell elements or terminal stem-loops. In this contribution we describe, annotate, and compare these elements within different serological groups of MBF
