By leveraging this homodimerization mechanism, molecular glues were rationally designed to induce dysfunctional 3A dimerization, thereby restoring antiviral RNAi. The optimal molecular glue, VTP‐32, demonstrated potent and pan‐enterovirus (groups A, B, D) antiviral effects.

Alphavirus Infection: Host Cell Shut-Off and Inhibition of Antiviral Responses
Alphaviruses cause debilitating disease in humans and animals and are transmitted by blood-feeding arthropods, typically mosquitoes. With a traditional focus on two models, Sindbis virus and Semliki Forest virus, alphavirus research has significantly ...

Schematic diagram of Alphavirus detection using defective XJ-160 replicons.
Due to the deletion in the non-structural protein coding region, the defective XJ-160 replicons (pVaXJ-EGFPΔ nsp4 and pVaXJ-GLucΔ nsp4) failed to express the reporter genes efficiently. When cells were infected with alphavirus, the alphavirus synthesized

VCP/p97 Is a Proviral Host Factor for Replication of Chikungunya Virus and Other Alphaviruses
The evolutionarily conserved AAA+ ATPase valosin-containing protein (VCP) was previously shown to be a proviral host factor for several viruses from different viral families such as Flaviviridae, Picornaviridae, and Herpesviridae. VCP was shown to affect

Alphavirus vectors for cancer therapy
Alphaviruses contain a single strand RNA genome that can be easily modified to express heterologous genes at very high levels in a broad variety of cells, including tumor cells. Alphavirus vectors can be used as viral particles containing a packaged vector RNA, or directly as nucleic acids in the form of RNA or DNA. In the latter case alphavirus RNA is

Mosquito Saliva Reshapes Alphavirus Infection and Immunopathogenesis
Alphaviruses are transmitted to humans via bites of infected mosquitoes. Although alphaviruses have caused a wide range of outbreaks and crippling disease, the availability of licensed vaccines or antiviral therapies remains limited.

Summary: Alphaviruses are mosquito-borne RNA viruses that pose a significant threat to humans, with risks worsened by global warming. Non-structural protein 3 (nsP3) is critical for alphavirus infection, yet its precise roles remain poorly defined. Using
