Abstract:
Ljungan virus (LV) is a recently identified picornavirus of the genus Parechovirus. LV has been isolated from voles trapped in Sweden and also in the United States. LV infected small rodents may suffer from diabetes type 1 and type 2 like symptoms, myocarditis and encephalitis. LV has been proposed as a human pathogen, with indications of causing diabetes type 1, myocarditis and intrauterine fetal deaths. In this thesis, cell culture adapted LV strains were utilised for development and adaptation of several basic methodological protocols to study the LV biology, e.g. real time PCR, highly spec

Abstract:
Infection of susceptible cells with foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) results in multiplication of the RNA genome and assembly of mature virions. The entire process of genome replication is completed in a few hours and encompasses many intracellular events. Like other picornaviruses, FMDV uses a peptide primed RNA replication mechanism. The factors that are required to uridylylate each of the three FMDV VPg peptides and the role of the FMDV cis-acting replication element (cre) or 3B Uridylylation Site (bus) in VPg uridylylation have been determined.

The Bunyaviridae family is one of the largest among RNA viruses, comprising more than 350 serologically distinct viruses. The family is classified into five genera, Orthobunyavirus, Hantavirus, Nairovirus, Phlebovirus, and Tospovirus. Orthobunyaviruses, nairoviruses and phleboviruses are maintained in nature by a propagative cycle involving blood-feeding arthropods and susceptible vertebrate hosts. Like most arthropod-borne viruses, bunyavirus replication causes little damage to the vector, whereas infection of the mammalian host may lead to death. This situation is mimicked in the laboratory:

Abstract:
Avian influenza A viruses typically do not replicate very efficiently when exposed to a mammalian host species. One of the reasons for this is the low activity of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of avian influenza viruses in mammalian cells. This host restrictive effect can be overcome by adaptive mutations in the avian polymerase, many of which are found in the 627-domain of the PB2 polymerase subunit. Deletion of the 627-domain revealed that this domain is not required for enzymatic functions of the polymerase in vitro, but that it essential for viral replication in a cellular environ

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has become a worldwide problem. Roughly 3% of world population are estimated to be infected with the virus, producing high rates of progressive liver disease, leading to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The present therapy, a combined administration of pegylated interferon-alpha (IFN) and ribavirin is costly and only successful in 50% of patients infected with HCV. It is also associated with serious side effects. Thus, there is an urgent need for better tolerated and more effective treatment modalities.

Viruses are intracellular pathogens that use the host cell to produce new infectious progeny. For all positive-strand RNA viruses that have been investigated so far, viral replication takes place in cytoplasmic virus-induced membrane structures. For turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), the generation of vesicles likely associated with the replication complex depends on the synthesis of the viral protein 6K. To further characterize the vesicles formed during TuMV infection, Nicotiana benthamiana plants were agroinfiltrated with a TuMV infectious clone expressing 6K protein fused to GFP. Using confoc
