“…These luciferase-tagged viruses are applicable not only for studying the virus life cycle in vitro and in vivo (viral proliferation, replication, assembly/release and entry) and analyzing virus-host interactions but also for evaluating therapeutic strategies and developing new inhibitors and vaccines. NanoLuc-based reporter viruses were successfully designed to study such dangerous diseases as: influenza A virus [ 232 , 233 , 234 , 235 , 236 ], hepatitis B [ 236 , 237 , 238 , 239 ] and E viruses [ 240 ], HIV [ 241 ], rotavirus [ 242 ], flavivirus [ 243 , 244 , 245 ], and arboviruses [ 246 ] which indicates the great potential of NanoLuc for such application.…”
