Research Topic
We live in the era of global changes which dramatically enhance spread of viruses. Climate changes leading to changes in the distribution of several reservoir hosts and vectors, intensive deforestation, massive increase of air transportation, open markets or increased migration of humans and goods are factors causing that we face new viruses, encounter viruses in new geographical regions or experience increased virus transmissions leading to epidemics.
It is therefore urgently needed to study relationships of viruses with their environment and their hosts and try to understand the mechanisms behind their circulation in nature, transmission as well as crossing of the species barriers which may lead to emergence of new diseases or new epidemics. And these are the field of interests of our department. Because our department was recently re-formed through fusion of several, previously independent teams, we cover these areas on a broad spectrum of medically and economically important viruses and on several specific topics:
Rodent-borne viruses
- molecular evolution and epidemiology of hantaviruses and arenaviruses
- molecular and cellular mechanisms of hantavirus and arenavirus overcoming of the species barriers
Tick-borne viruses
- mechanisms of the tick-borne encephalitis virus non-viraemic transmission
- development of anti-tick vaccines preventing transmission of the tick-borne pathogens
SARS-CoV-2
- development and clinical validation of diagnostic tests
- molecular epidemiology and new variants monitoring based on nanopore technology-based whole genome sequencing
- immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and development of clinically relevant virological tests
Influenza viruses
- role of conserved viral antigens in the antiviral immunity: HA2 glycopolypeptide, PB1-F2 and M2 proteins
- induction of heterosubtype immunity by using HA2 gp and M2 protein ectodomain (M2e) antigens for vaccination purposes
- analysis of the primary viral and secondary bacterial infection synergic effects
Plant viruses
- development of effective and innovative molecular diagnostic methods for specific detection of plant viral pathogens in economically important crops (grapevine, fruit trees, fruit vegetables, oil bearing plants)
- virus diversity studies with the aim to identify molecular factor and evolutionary changes increasing virulence
- studies on specific virus/plant interactions on molecular and proteomic level
European Virus Archive
Department of Virus Ecology is a proud partner of the European infrastructural project “European Virus Archive goes global”. Its mission is to support virological research not only through continuous virus discovery, isolation, characterization and storage but particularly through provision of the viruses and derivative products to partners from academia, public health and industry. For more information on the project, please, visit: www.european-virus-archive.com
Application outputs
- Virus Detection Methodology APVV 14-0055
- Our department contributed to development and clinical validation as well as provides viral RNA as positive controls of all IVD certified RT-qPCR and LAMP diagnostic kits developed and manufactured by the company MultiplexDX, s. r. o.: https://www.multiplexdx.com/products?tab=covid-19
