West Nile virus (WNV) is a neurotropic ffavivirus that has emerged globally as a significant
cause of viral encephalitis. WNV is maintained in an enzootic cycle between mosquitoes …

The Flavivirus genus of the Flaviviridae family includes 70 enveloped single-stranded-RNA
positive-sense viruses transmitted by arthropods. Among these viruses, there are a relevant …

Abstract Neutralization of West Nile virus (WNV) in vivo correlates with the development of
an antibody response against the viral envelope (E) protein. Using random mutagenesis …

Neutralization of flaviviruses in vivo correlates with the development of an antibody
response against the viral envelope (E) protein. Previous studies demonstrated that …

Antibody protection against flaviviruses is associated with the development of neutralizing
antibodies against the viral envelope (E) protein. Prior studies with West Nile virus (WNV) …

We report the first full-length infectious clone of the current epidemic, lineage I, strain of West
Nile virus (WNV). The full-length cDNA was constructed from reverse transcription-PCR …

The flavivirus envelope protein is the dominant antigen in eliciting neutralizing antibodies
and plays an important role in inducing immunologic responses in the infected host. We …

The envelope (E) protein of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is associated with viral
binding to cellular receptors, membrane fusion, and the induction of protective neutralizing …

In this study, we evaluated the relative role of the structural and nonstructural proteins of the
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in inducing protective immunities and compared the …

The Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is one of the vector borne causes of encephalitis
found in southeastern Asia. This positive single-stranded RNA virus is a member of the …
