Cellular phosphoinositides and the maturation of bluetongue virus, a non-enveloped capsid virus. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bluetongue virus (BTV), a member of Orbivirus genus in the Reoviridae family is a double capsid virus enclosing a genome of 10 double-stranded RNA segments. A non-structural protein of BTV, NS3, which is associated with cellular membranes and

Pandoraviruses are giant viruses of ameba with 1 μm-long virions. They have an ovoid morphology and are surrounded by a tegument-like structure lacking any capsid protein nor any gene encoding a capsid protein. In this work, we studied the ultrastructure

The Astrovirus Capsid: A Review [PDF]
Astroviruses are enterically transmitted viruses that cause infections in mammalian and avian species. Astroviruses are nonenveloped, icosahedral viruses comprised of a capsid protein shell and a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome. The capsid protein undergoes dramatic proteolytic processing both inside and outside of the host cell, resulting ...

Genetic Code Expansion and Bio-Orthogonal Labeling Reveal Intact HIV-1 Capsids inside the Nucleus
Microscopy is one of the few techniques that can directly observe the HIV-1 capsid as it traverses the cell. However, an extrinsic or intrinsic label is needed to facilitate detection and this can perturb capsid behavior. Now, S. Schifferdecker, V. Zila,

HIV-1 capsid variability: viral exploitation and evasion of capsid-binding molecules [PDF]
The HIV-1 capsid, a conical shell encasing viral nucleoprotein complexes, is involved in multiple post-entry processes during viral replication. Many host factors can directly bind to the HIV-1 capsid protein (CA) and either promote or prevent HIV-1 ...
