Control of Capsid Transformations during Reovirus Entry

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus), a dsRNA virus with a multilayered capsid, serves as a model system for studying the entry of similar viruses. The outermost layer of this capsid undergoes processing to generate a metastable intermediate.

The Role of Capsid in HIV-1 Nuclear Entry

open access: yesViruses, 2021
HIV-1 can infect non-dividing cells. The nuclear envelope therefore represents a barrier that HIV-1 must traverse in order to gain access to the host cell chromatin for integration.

Performance of Affinity-Improved DARPin Targeting HIV Capsid Domain in Interference of Viral Progeny Production

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Previously, a designed ankyrin repeat protein, AnkGAG1D4, was generated for intracellular targeting of the HIV-1 capsid domain. The efficiency was satisfactory in interfering with the HIV assembly process.

Intranuclear Positions of HIV-1 Proviruses Are Dynamic and Do Not Correlate with Transcriptional Activity

open access: yesmBio, 2022
The relationship between spatiotemporal distribution of HIV-1 proviruses and their transcriptional activity is not well understood. To elucidate the intranuclear positions of transcriptionally active HIV-1 proviruses, we utilized an RNA fluorescence in ...

TRIM5α Restriction of HIV-1-N74D Viruses in Lymphocytes Is Caused by a Loss of Cyclophilin A Protection

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The core of HIV-1 viruses bearing the capsid change N74D (HIV-1-N74D) do not bind the human protein CPSF6. In primary human CD4+ T cells, HIV-1-N74D viruses exhibit an infectivity defect when compared to wild-type.

Stephan Oroszlan and the Proteolytic Processing of Retroviral Proteins: Following A Pro

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Steve Oroszlan determined the sequences at the ends of virion proteins for a number of different retroviruses. This work led to the insight that the amino-terminal amino acid of the mature viral CA protein is always proline.

HIV-1 Group M Capsid Amino Acid Variability: Implications for Sequence Quality Control of Genotypic Resistance Testing

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Background: With the approval of the HIV-1 capsid inhibitor, lenacapavir, capsid sequencing will be required for managing lenacapavir-experienced individuals with detectable viremia.

Cells and Fugu Response to Capsid of BFNNV Genotype

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The nervous necrosis virus (NNV) of the BFNNV genotype is the causative agent of viral encephalopathy and retinopathy (VER) in cold water fishes. Similar to the RGNNV genotype, BFNNV is also considered a highly destructive virus.
