Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases
Zebrafish, with high genetic homology to humans, serves as a powerful vertebrate model for disease modeling and drug discovery. Integration of CRISPR/Cas9 technology enables precise genome editing, facilitating the development of translational models for human diseases.

Greater than the sum of its parts: understanding alphavirus infection through characterization of nonstructural polyproteins [PDF]
Alphaviruses are enveloped, positive strand RNA viruses that are capable of causing a variety of symptoms including arthritis, encephalitis, and even death in humans. Chikungunya virus, a member of the alphavirus genus, is a recently emerging pathogen in

The precise mechanism by which many virus-based vectors activate immune responses remains unknown. Dendritic cells (DCs) play key roles in priming T cell responses and controlling virus replication, but their functions in generating protective immunity ...

ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most lethal brain cancers, with median survival rarely exceeding 15 months after diagnosis. Interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) is a potent immunostimulatory cytokine capable of reshaping the tumor microenvironment (TME), yet its clinical translation is hindered by systemic toxicity and short half‐life. RNA‐based local

Effects of Palmitoylation of Replicase Protein nsP1 on Alphavirus Infection
ABSTRACT The membrane-associated alphavirus RNA replication complex contains four virus-encoded subunits, the nonstructural proteins nsP1 to nsP4. Semliki Forest virus (SFV) nsP1 is hydrophobically modified by palmitoylation of cysteines 418 to 420.

Characterization of an In Vitro Model of Alphavirus Infection of Immature and Mature Neurons [PDF]
ABSTRACT Terminally differentiated, mature neurons are essential cells that are not easily regenerated. Neurotropic viruses, such as Sindbis virus (SV), cause encephalomyelitis through their ability to replicate in neurons. SV causes the death of immature neurons, while mature neurons can often survive infection.

Dengue Virus Capsid Protein Interaction With Nucleic Acids
Binding of dengue virus capsid protein (DENV C) to ssDNA alters Trp fluorescence intensity, lifetime, and anisotropy, revealing structural rearrangements in the complex and suggesting a possible association with liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) transmission has greatly increased in the last decade, partly due to the ...

Alphavirus-host interactions : how to unravel the proviral activity of G3BP [PDF]
The genus Alphavirus belongs to the virus family Togaviridiae, a group of arthropod-borne enveloped RNA viruses with single-stranded, positive-sense genome.
