High-throughput, luciferase-based reverse genetics systems for identifying inhibitors of Marburg and Ebola viruses
6 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
Marburg virus (MARV) and Ebola virus (EBOV), members of the family Filoviridae, represent a significant challenge to global public health. Currently, no licensed therapies exist to treat filovirus infections, which cause up to 90% mortality in human cases. To facilitate development of antivirals against these viruses, we established two distinct screening platforms based on MARV and EBOV reverse genetics systems...
