Macavirus
''Macavirus'' is a genus of viruses in the order ''Herpesvirales'', in the family ''Herpesviridae'', in the subfamily ''Gammaherpesvirinae''. Mammals serve as natural hosts. There are nine species in this genus. Diseases associated with this genus include: inapparent infection in their reservoir hosts (wildebeest for alHV-1 and sheep for ovHV-2), but fatal lymphoproliferative disease when they infect MCF-susceptible hosts, including cattle, deer, bison, water buffalo and pigs. Species The genus consists of the following nine species: * ''Macavirus alcelaphinegamma1'', also called Alcelaphine gammaherpesvirus 1 * ''Macavirus alcelaphinegamma2'', also called Alcelaphine gammaherpesvirus 2 * ''Macavirus bovinegamma6'', also called Bovine gammaherpesvirus 6 * ''Macavirus caprinegamma2'', also called Caprine gammaherpesvirus 2 * ''Macavirus hippotraginegamma1'', also called Hippotragine gammaherpesvirus 1 * ''Macavirus ovinegamma2'', also called Ovine gammaherpesvirus 2 * ''Macavir ...

Gammaherpesvirinae
''Gammaherpesvirinae'' is a subfamily of viruses in the order ''Herpesvirales'' and in the family ''Herpesviridae''. Viruses in ''Gammaherpesvirinae'' are distinguished by reproducing at a more variable rate than other subfamilies of ''Herpesviridae''. Mammals serve as natural hosts. Viruses associated with disease in this subfamily include Epstein–Barr virus and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. Taxonomy Herpesviruses represent a group of double-stranded DNA viruses distributed widely within the animal kingdom. The family ''Herpesviridae'', which contains eight viruses that infect humans, is the most extensively studied group within this order and comprises three subfamilies, namely ''Alphaherpesvirinae'', ''Betaherpesvirinae'' and ''Gammaherpesvirinae''. Genera ''Gammaherpesvirinae'' consists of the following seven genera: * '' Bossavirus'' * '' Lymphocryptovirus'' * ''Macavirus'' * '' Manticavirus'' * '' Patagivirus'' * '' Percavirus'' * '' Rhadinovirus'' Str ...

Herpesviridae
''Orthoherpesviridae'', previously named and more widely known as ''Herpesviridae'', is a large family of DNA viruses that cause infections and certain diseases in animals, including humans. The members of this family are commonly known as herpesviruses. The family name is derived from the Greek word ἕρπειν ( 'to creep'), referring to spreading cutaneous lesions, usually involving blisters, seen in flares of herpes simplex 1, herpes simplex 2 and herpes zoster ( shingles). In 1971, the International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) established ''Herpesvirus'' as a genus with 23 viruses among four groups. Since then, the number of identified herpesviruses has grown to more than 100. Herpesviruses can cause both latent and lytic infections. Nine herpesvirus types are known to primarily infect humans, at least five of which are extremely widespread among most human populations, and which cause common diseases: herpes simplex 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2, also know ...

Herpesvirales
''Herpesvirales'' is an order of dsDNA viruses (Baltimore group I) with animal hosts, characterised by a common morphology consisting of an icosahedral capsid enclosed in a glycoprotein-containing lipid envelope. Common infections in humans caused by members of this order include cold sores, genital herpes, chickenpox, shingles, and glandular fever. ''Herpesvirales'' is the sole order in the class ''Herviviricetes'', which is the sole class in the phylum ''Peploviricota''. Virology Morphology All members of the order have a virion structure that consists of a DNA core surrounded by an icosahedral capsid composed of 12 pentavalent and 150 hexavalent capsomeres (T = 16). The capsid has a diameter of ~110 nanometers (nm) and is embedded in a proteinaceous matrix called the tegument, which in its turn is enclosed by a glycoprotein-containing lipid envelope with a diameter of about 200 nm. The DNA genome is linear and double stranded, with sizes in the range 125–290 kbp ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
