A novel baculovirus-derived promoter with high activity in the baculovirus expression system

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
The baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) has been widely used to produce a large number of recombinant proteins, and is becoming one of the most powerful, robust, and cost-effective systems for the production of eukaryotic proteins.

Nanobodies as next‐generation targeting platforms: From discovery technologies to translational biomedicine

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Nanobodies, derived from the variable domains of camelid heavy‐chain‐only antibodies, have emerged as transformative biomedical tools due to their nanoscale size, exceptional stability, and unique capacity to recognize cryptic epitopes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the field, outlining the structural and biochemical features of ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Gene expression after baculovirus transduction.

open access: yes, 2023
(a) EGFP-baculovirus expression in Sf9 cells eluted from hydrogels after one day. The EGFP expression from a PVA-gelatin hydrogel is presented as a fluorescent image of DAPI-stained Sf9 cells (the scale bar represents 0.5 mm).

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Overview of the Baculovirus Expression System

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Protein Science, 2018
AbstractThis unit provides information on the replication cycle of insect baculovirus to provide an understanding of how this virus has been adapted for use as an expression vector for recombinant proteins in insect cells. We provide an overview of the virus structure and its unique bi‐phasic replication cycle, which has been exploited in developing ...

Conserved dimerization architecture in C‐type lectins from virus‐vector mosquitoes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) are involved in the detection of viral/microbial carbohydrates. We studied a family of soluble CTLs in the mosquito Aedes aegypti, which acts as a vector for viruses like dengue and Zika. Using crystallography, biophysics, and structure prediction approaches, we found that these proteins consistently pair together in the same ...

Development of a replication-defective baculovirus platform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Baculovirus expression vector systems are used for the production of an increasing number of licensed commercial subunit vaccines. Though baculoviruses are incapable of replicating outside a narrow host range of lepidopteran insects, a replication ...

The trimeric Shu complex in C. elegans is an ATPase that remodels RAD51 filaments in the homologous recombination‐associated DNA damage response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The C. elegans Shu complex (RFS‐1/RIP‐1/SWS‐1) is a DNA‐dependent ATPase that regulates RAD‐51 filaments during homologous recombination. The trimer preferentially binds 5′‐exposed DNA, remodels RAD‐51 filaments via ATP hydrolysis, and stabilizes filaments through ATP binding.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.
