Inhibitors of alphavirus entry and replication identified with a stable Chikungunya replicon cell line and virus-based assays.
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an alphavirus, has recently caused epidemic outbreaks and is therefore considered a re-emerging pathogen for which no effective treatment is available. In this study, a CHIKV replicon containing the virus replicase proteins together with puromycin acetyltransferase, EGFP a...
