Machupo virus with mutations in the transmembrane domain and glycosylation sites is attenuated and immunogenic in animal models of Bolivian Hemorrhagic Fever
2021-12-03
Abstract excerpt
Several highly pathogenic mammarenaviruses cause severe hemorrhagic and neurologic disease in humans, for which vaccines and antivirals are limited or unavailable. New World (NW) mammarenavirus Machupo virus (MACV) infection causes Bolivian hemorrhagic fever in humans. We previously reported that the disruption of specific N-linked glycan sites on the glycoprotein (GPC) partially attenuate MACV in an IFN-αβ/γ rece...
