The Tete virus ( English Tete virus , TETEV , scientifically Tete orthobunyavirus ) is a virus species from the bunyavirus family , genus Orthobunyavirus . Various virus isolates, which are closely related to the Tete virus on the basis of sequence comparisons, are now classified as subtypes of the Tete virus . In the past, people spoke of the tete virus group because of their serological properties and the cross-reactivity involved . The virus was named after the province of Tete in Mozambique . Two subtypes of TETV (Bahig- and Matruh virus in Africa and Europe) were from ticks (u. A. The species Hyalomma marginatum isolated), which occurs in North America Weldona virus from biting midges (Ceratopogonidae). For other subtypes, the vector (carrier) is still unknown. A specific disease caused by infection of animals and humans with the tete virus is not known.

The tete virus is missing in the same manner as the Anopheles A virus (s. Anopheles A Orthobunyavirus ) and the Anopheles B virus (s. Anopheles B Orthobunyavirus ) from the same genus an open reading frame (ORF English open reading frame ) for the non-structural protein NSs, which is usually found overlapping with the reading frame for the nucleoprotein (N) on the S fragment of the orthobunyavirus .
