Marek's disease virus (MDV) is an oncogenic herpesvirus that causes various clinical
syndromes in its natural host, the chicken. MDV has long been of interest as a model …

The chemokine superfamily of leukocyte chemo-attractants coordinates development and
deploy-ment of the immune system by signaling through a family of G protein–coupled …

This paper is about the taxonomy and genomics of herpesviruses. Each theme is presented
as a digest of current information flanked by commentaries on past activities and future …

We have obtained the complete DNA sequence of pseudorabies virus (PRV), an
alphaherpesvirus also known as Aujeszky's disease virus or suid herpesvirus 1, using …

Marek's disease virus (MDV) causes an acute lymphoproliferative disease in chickens,
resulting in T cell lymphomas in visceral organs and peripheral nerves. Earlier studies have …

Marek's disease (MD) is a lymphoproliferative disease of chickens that, in the absence of
control measures, is capable of causing devastating losses in commercial poultry flocks. MD …

Marek's disease (MD) is a highly contagious lymphoproliferative disease of poultry caused
by the oncogenic herpesvirus designated Marek's disease virus (MDV). MD has a worldwide …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small (∼ 22-nucleotide) regulatory molecules that block
translation or induce degradation of target mRNAs. These have been identified in a wide …

Marek's disease (MD) is a highly contagious lymphoproliferative and demyelinating disorder
of chickens. MD is caused by Marek's disease virus (MDV), a cell-associated, acute …

Charge-neutral DNA nanoparticles have been developed in which single molecules of DNA
are compacted to their minimal possible size. We speculated that the small size of these …
