Comparative analysis of the extent of protein–protein interactions in icosahedral viral capsids
Abstract Nonenveloped viruses package, carry, and deliver their genomes to the targeted cells using protein shells known as capsids. The viral capsids come in different shapes and sizes, most exhibiting helical or icosahedral symmetries. Here, we analyzed 634 icosahedral capsids at high resolution (<4 Å) from 39 virus families with T‐numbers ranging ...

Immune response to norovirus infection
Noroviruses are non-enveloped viruses of the family Caliciviridae. The norovirus variants that infect humans are highly contagious and are a leading cause of outbreaks for nonbacterial gastroenteritis. In the etiological pattern of acute viral intestinal

Diagnostic electron microscopy in human infectious diseases – Methods and applications
Abstract Diagnostic electron microscopy (EM) is indispensable in all cases of infectious diseases which deserve or profit from the detection of the entire pathogen (i.e. the infectious unit). The focus of its application has shifted during the last decades from routine diagnostics to diagnostics of special cases, emergencies and the investigation of ...

Stress granules emerging during viral infection can play both pro‐ and antiviral roles. RNA viruses use various strategies to antagonize their formation, including the degradation, inhibition, or sequestration of G3BP1, a key stress granule protein. However, biochemical and structural insights into these mechanisms have been reported for only a handful

Establishment of a Novel Caco‐2‐Based Cell Culture System for Human Sapovirus Propagation
We identified that both Caco‐2 cells and in‐house Caco‐2/Cas9 cells are susceptible to human sapovirus (HuSaV) infection. By performing two rounds of single‐cell cloning from Caco‐2/Cas9 cells, we successfully established a highly susceptible cell line, designated as Caco‐2MC.

Analysis of a Compartmental Model for Norovirus Transmission Through Environmental Contact
Norovirus remains a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis globally, posing substantial public health and economic challenges. This study introduces a mathematical model to examine Norovirus transmission dynamics in environmental settings, incorporating time‐dependent control parameters including isolation of symptomatic individuals and environmental ...
