Mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV) is a double-stranded RNA virus . It is a part of the family Reoviridae , as well as the subfamily Spinareovirinae . As seen in the name, the Mammalian Ortheoreovirus infects numerous mammalian species and vertebrates which serve as natural hosts. Some diseases that occur as a result of this virus or are associated with this virus include mild upper respiratory illness, and gastrointestinal illness. Examples of these are: upper respiratory tract syndromes, gastroenteritis (stomach flu), biliary atresia , obstructive hydrocephalus , jaundice , alopecia , conjunctivitis , and ‘oily hair’ associated with steatorrhea .

329-451: Is Mammalian orthoreovirus type 3, or Mammalian orthoreovirus 3-Dearing (MRV-3; Strain Dearing). It induces cell death preferentially in transformed cells and therefore displays inherent oncolytic properties. It is believed that Mammalian orthoreovirus causes subclinical infection in humans more so than in other mammals. Meaning, that a human infected with Mammalian orthoreovirus, regardless of

470-609: Is also characterized with "naked", icosahedral capsids and 10-12 segments of linear double stranded RNA . “Naked” meaning the icosahedral capsid is not surrounded by a viral envelope. Within the Reoviridae family the Mammalian orthoreovirus is a part of the Spinareovirinae subfamily. This is based on the fact that viruses within this subfamily, such as the Mammalian orthoreovirus , Aquareovirus , Coltivirus , Cypovirus , etc., have

517-412: Is at least partially due to because the Mammalian orthoreovirus does not rely on arthropods for transmission as many viruses do. Instead the Mammalian orthoreovirus is transmitted via the oral-fecal route , meaning in some way an infected host's feces are ingested by another person, or the aerosol route, meaning the viral particles travel through the air and are breathed in by a person.

This disassembly of the outer capsid of the virus is performed by endocytic proteases , during acidic pH conditions. This leads to the removal of

2068-481: The reoviruses in general. The Orthoreovirus genus is subdivided into fusogenic and non-fusogenic. The division is based upon fusogenic orthoreoviruses having the ability to cause fusion of infected cells, resulting in multinucleated cellular syncytia. These fusogenic orthoreoviruses encode a fusion-associated small transmembrane (FAST) protein that is plays a role in this ability. Prototypical Mammailian orthoreovirsus are non-fusogenic, and do not produce syncytia because of

2115-840: The rest of the reoviruses are structured, the Mammalian orthoreovirus contains a segmented genome with a linear genomic arrangement, which is enclosed in a 70-80 nm double layered protein capsid , made up of an inner (T=2) and outer layer (T=13). The viral core of MRV, and orthoreoviruses alike, consist of an inner capsid layer plus its enclosed viral genome . The Mammalian orthoreovirus double stranded RNA genome contains 10 segments divided into three size classes (small, medium, and large) based upon their characteristic mobility during gel electrophoresis. The genome has three large segments, (L1, L2, and L3) which encode for λ (lambda) proteins; three medium segments (M1, M2, and M3) that encode for μ (mu) proteins; and four small segments (S1, S2, S3, and S4) which encode for σ (sigma) proteins. In total,
