In 1954, Hazara virus (species scientifically : Hazara orthonairovirus ) was discovered as one of the tick-borne viruses of the genus Orthonairovirus in the order Bunyavirales . It was found in Pakistan in ticks of the species Ixodes , which are native to this region. A distinction is made in this species in addition to the original Hazara virus (en. Hazara virus, HAZV) and the Tofla virus ( English Tofla virus , TFLV). Today this virus is being studied in mice in order to develop therapies for the highly pathogenic Crimean-Congo fever virus .

construction

The viruses belong to the enveloped negative-stranded RNA viruses ; their genome is divided into three parts: small ( English small , S), medium ( English middle , M) and large ( English large , L). The L-RNA segment codes for an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (L-protein), the M-RNA segment for two surface glycoproteins (Gc and Gn) and the S-RNA segment for a nucleocapsid protein (N). The three genomic RNA segments are encapsulated by copies of the N-protein in the form of ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNP complexes). The N-protein is the most abundant viral protein in the virus particles of the bunyavirales and infected cells and is therefore the main target in many serological and molecular diagnoses.

Crimean Congo Fever Virus

The Crimean Congo Fever Virus ( Crimean Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus , CCHFV), formerly traded as the closest relative of HAZV, belongs to the species Crimean Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Orthonairovirus of the same genus.

Systematics

The division into different species follows the ICTV Master Species List (MSL) # 33 from November 2018 (extracts):

  • Genus Orthonairovirus
  • Hazara virus (en. Hazara virus, HAZV)
  • Tofla virus (en. Tofla virus, TFLV)
  • Species Nairobi sheep disease ornithonairovirus (en. Nairobi sheep disease orthonairovirus )
  • Nairobi sheep disease virus (NSDV, including Ganjam virus)
